letters to a son



My doctor decided he will induce me tomorrow, September 30th, the day my husband Charlie and mother in law Moira predicted he would come! So, with tomorrow being the birth of our first born son I thought I would get organized a bit and write him a few letters I will disperse throughout his life. Letters from my heart full of my thoughts and feelings and also life lessons I've learned. I have written a letter for when he's the ripe age of 8 and ready to be baptized, 16 when he starts going on group dates and such, 19 when he prepares for a mission, and another letter for when he finds the woman he should marry in the temple. I must say I got teary eyed writing these letters just knowing in a few short years all of these marvelous events will happen in his life. I hope to write letters like this to all my offspring, however many there may be!

Wish me luck tomorrow, it will be a lONG day but the best day!

Lovie, that is such a beautiful inspiration. You will be a wonderful mommy and so caring in every way, as you always have been. We will be praying as we have been for a speedy and safe delivery! Love you forever, like you for always, as long as I'm living (and forever) my baby you'll be! Love, momma xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
