Carrying Our Wayward Son

Hey Little Fella,
You aren’t even here yet, but I’m wondering what is going through your head. I also wonder how someone has thoughts without having a language to work off of. It would seem that language helps structures thoughts and feelings, but without language, I wonder how you are filing away things that you learn, even at this “not yet born” stage.
You certainly are busy doing something, mom woke up this morning, and you were going crazy. I placed my hand on her stomach and you were kicking and punching away. We thought that maybe her stomach was grumbling and all the noise was bothering you, so I put my ear to her stomach to see if I could hear anything, and you kicked me in the face (or maybe punched me). Regardless, you are obviously very busy in there. Not sure what you are doing, but keep up the good work, just don’t keep mom up at night.
