Sweet love of mine,

There are days I imagine what color eyes you’ll have… brown like your daddy’s or hazel like mine. What color hair you’ll have, what color skin will embrace your spirit, how contagious your laugh will be as we sing songs together when we do long road trips. Will you enjoy the quiet moments of listening to the rain falling on the roof… the soft falling of tree leaves outside the window… the quiet hum of the earth when we close our eyes and meditate. I’ll teach you meditation if you want to learn it. I’ll share with you everything you’d like to know, even if you think I’m not interested. If you want to build a train, I’ll take classes with you. If you want to do something without me, I’ll consider possibly setting it up. My goal is for you to have the happiest life you could possible have full of freedom, creativity, and unbridled desire to do what fulfills you completely.

I do secretly hope you’ll love to do jigsaw puzzles with me. They’re one of my favorite things to do, especially in the winter when it snows outside. If you were here with me now, we’d build a snowman. There’s almost 2 feet of snow, yet not too cold. I’ll even carry you on my shoulders if you want… and we can throw snowballs at daddy until he runs back into the house like a scaredy cat. You and I can team up and get him ALL the time.

Here, I’ll tell you a little secret about daddy. If you ever want money when you’re a teenager, simply hold up a hypnotic pendant in front of him and say, “Mom says to tell you to obey and give me $10 and you will remember to forget this suggestion.”

Ssshhh that’s our little secret.

Love
Mommy
