Dear baby

I found out about you today and then I decided that I would write to you throughout my pregnancy with you similar to my mum did when she was pregnant with me, your nana Jo that is although it upsets me that you will never get to meet her she is part of you now and you are part of me.

I want to tell you the story of how I came to discover your existence, it was early this morning when I awoke next to you Daddy feeling nauseous, I put it down to the stress of having three open cases this week and this being the first night I had a full night of sleep in a week and probably ate to much dinner that your dad made me when we returned home from the Old Haunt last night, that's your fathers pub and me, him and my boys from the precinct your uncle Kevin and uncle Esposito and my best friend Lanie who is the only other person that knows about your existence as my best friend. Me and Lanie had planed to go shopping this morning leaving Castle and the boys to play Madden at the loft, it wasn't until we stumbled into the baby department at the mall and Lanie held up a NYPD 'my mommy takes names and kicks but' onsie that I came to the realisation that I was two weeks late. That was when I confided in you auntie Lanie and she dragged me to the pharmacy by her apartment to pick up a pregnancy test. It wasn't until it came back positive that I panicked about becoming a mother with my job.

I love you baby and although you may be nothing but a clump of cells at the moment and I'm scared of what type of mother I'm going to be I will always love you and so will your daddy even though he doesn't know of your existence yet I will find a creative way of telling him.

Talk to you soon

Love Mommy x
