I know you won’t be able to read this for a long time, and this blog may have gone to the land of wind and ghosts before then, but I just felt like I needed to tell you some things. Right now this is the best way I have to do it.
I have never been as excited about anything as I am about you. You are supposed to get here on May 1st, and it cannot get here soon enough. At the same time I am so nervous, because I feel completely unqualified to raise a child. I guess everyone feels like that when they have their first kid, and I just have to keep telling myself that people do this all the time. There is so much I don’t know yet. Guess I better learn quick. Sorry you are going to be the guinea pig.
I pray I can do as good a job raising you as your grandparents did raising me. I pray I can give you everything you need, and that I don’t give you everything you want (just almost everything). I pray that you will be healthy and happy and that you will always think I am the best Dad in the world. I can’t wait to teach you how to ride a bike, how to throw a football, how to swim, and so many other things. I can’t wait to read my favorite books with you. I can’t wait to take you camping, to the zoo, and especially to take you to your first Alabama game. I can’t wait to see you experience everything for the first time.
I love you,
Daddy
