Sentimental Mummy letter to baby Kevin
Kevin,
When you were born you had tiny white spots on your nose, “grains de milium”, which disappeared after a few weeks. The little black hairs on your ears have yet to disappear! Your hair was very dark and fine, like mine, but it’s now becoming auburn. Your eyebrows were almost invisible, but now they are darker and give your face a new expression.
Your were very tired during your first week, while we were still in hospital, and you slept all the time in between feeds. You made some funny noises in your sleep, the most alarming of which resembled a cork popping out of a bottle. Your Daddy and I jumped every time we heard it – it was SO loud! But it didn’t even wake you.
