A letter to Camille

Dear Camille,

Last night Mummy and Daddy went out for a dinner to celebrate the fact that you would soon be our little girl. We went to a Chinese restaurant (of course!) and drank French champagne to celebrate such a special event. The steamed oysters with ginger were absolutely delicious. The man at the table next to us taught us how to say cheers in Cantonese (Yum Seng) and Mandarin (Kan Pai)

This will be the last opportunity Mummy and Daddy will have to celebrate, before Mummy flies to Guangzhou to finally meet you and bring you home. We are both very excited and have been working hard to finish the house before you arrive. You have a beautiful bedroom upstairs with many toys and books, and you can see all the city lights from your bedroom at night.

As I write this you are probably being tucked into bed for the night. Sleep well. There are now only 8 sleeps before I will see you for the first time

Love, hugs and a big kiss good night from your new Mummy
