Letter to my unborn son.

A few weeks ago Jasmin asked me to write a letter to our son to put in the baby book and share with him when he is older. Since we're just waiting around for him to arrive I thought it might be a timely to share it with everyone now.

Mattimeo,

Let me be the first to say, "Welcome to the world!" It's a crazy, beautiful, hard, and wonderful world and you are in for quite the adventure.

Me and your mother are so excited to help you on the path to happiness; to show you where the footholds and pitfalls are; to show you it's complexity and simplicity; and to give you all the equipment you need to survive and walk down this shared path together. I'm waiting eagerly right now to see who you will be, how you will change, and the man you will become.

Know always that I will be right here beside you, cheering you along and helping you when you fall. I love you so much right now and that love will only grow, as you will, over time. You are my son and we're going to have a great adventure together.

Love,
Dad
