Clint, scolding his kids: We are not mad, just disappointed.

Laura: No, we are mad.

Clint: Yes, we are mad. We are livid. But we are going to let this one slide.

Laura: No, we are not.

Clint: I’m not a mind reader, Laura.

My dearest future children,

I just watched a video about navigating change. It includes a movie called Inside Out. Someday, we'll watch this movie together as a family.

I have experienced a lot of transitions in my life and it was difficult to handle it alone. But God gave me the right people to process those emotions and thoughts I had through the church community.

For my parents, crying may seem a form of weakness. Every time we experience something sad, we are required to put up a strong front and prevent ourselves from crying. But my tear ducts say otherwise. My tears are easy to be triggered. And I had to embrace that part of myself. I had to feel what I felt at the moment and embrace that feeling. I had to learn to accept my emotions while not sitting on it for too long.

I may not have the luxury to process my emotions with my parents, but I want to give you that opportunity to have your family as the first people who can help you navigate change and handle your emotions in a healthy way. My prayer is that your father and I are the first people you can feel comfortable to for you to be vulnerable. May you trust us enough for us to see the vulnerable parts of yourselves.

May we also have the courage to show our vulnerable pieces to you, just to show how human we are too. You already occupy a big space in my heart even if you're not yet here.

Dear Noah,

I knew I wanted to name you Noah because of God's revelation to me last Sunday. He gave me a Word about my calling and my family—even if it doesn't make sense yet, wait anyway.

My only desire as you grow into the man that God has called you to be is may you be like Noah, who obeyed everything that God has commanded him (Genesis 6:22).

As Noah built the ark without any background in architecture, engineering, nor carpentry, may your creativity be inspired by the Lord. With everything that you will create with your hands, may you only glorify God and be a bringer of good news of great joy to everyone.

In the middle of great flood, may the heart of your leadership be anchored on the One who can walk on water and can make the raging storms calm down. May the true captain of your ship be God alone so you can navigate turbulent waters with unwavering faith.

And during the times when there's no water, may you remain steadfast in your faith knowing that your God is the provider of Living Water. No matter how long the drought may have been or no matter how long you've been traveling through the desert, I pray that you'll be reminded that the rain will come.

Just like how God promised me that you will come.

Dear Emma,

I just celebrated my 24th birthday with my friends. I'm really hoping and praying that the people I celebrated my birthday with are your beloved aunties and uncles.

Today, God made it rain for Him to show His love for me. He showed up for me through the rain. It really felt like God was telling me, “I'm here. I love you, darling.” Ever since that one night, it felt like God and I are having secret conversations through the rain. It really felt intimate for me.

As they honor me on my birthday, they have always been thanking me for my presence, for being there, and for going the extra mile. It really meant a lot. I felt seen after so long of showing up to the people I value.

These people who celebrated with me showed up and really went the extra mile just to be with me. On the way home, I had nothing to say but, "Finally! Thank you Lord!" Finally, I've met the people who's going to show up for me and who were willing to go the extra mile for me.

Two words were ringing on my ears every time they honor me: “I'm here.” Their presence were enough to make me feel loved but those words generate a different kind of comfort.

And so, your name Emmanuelle has brought another significance for me once again. It's a reminder of God's presence in my life and the people He has placed in my life to be a tangible expression of His presence.

Dear Emma,

I still haven't met your father but your name is already very special for me. It came from this verse:

““Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us).” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭1‬:‭23‬ ‭ESV‬‬

For the past few months, God has always been telling me the same thing: “I was there. I am here. I will always be with you.” Your mom has a terrible memory and maybe that's why God keeps on reminding her that God will always be with her, no matter what her season is.

Your name is supposed to be the name of my non-existent baby brother. Since God did not allow my parents to have another baby, I'm naming you Emmanuelle instead.

I was reminded of you when I encountered this post from Instagram.

I'm excited of the conversations we'll have, Emma. Even if you're still not with me, I already love you. May your heart be filled with love, my world changer.

i feel like i already know you at the core of my being. how could i yearn for the presence of someone i haven't met yet?
