"My first reaction is to share that I can’t wait to get pregnant again and have your energy and passion guard my birth.
Professionally I have to write how invigorating, energizing and enriching I found your conversation and vocation. Know from the bottom of my heart how much I appreciative and grateful to connect with you."
