Hey baby

I need you to remember

this picture 

it’s an important and rare moment of us together

As you know from this moment your father would pass from a car accident before You even made it home and then you lost me shortly after.

You were born a preemie and the look on my face says it all.

The expression of worry and joy mixed together to make for the realist moment

I hope you get to experience the moments of bringing life into the world and I pray that you never take one

and I pray that you love yourself 

and that your contribution to the culture is positive instead of nuisance

Impactful instead of neutral. 

My love beware of propositions that May try to  prostitute you it’s crucial 

God knows 

There’s so much I want to impart to you

So I’m hoping that this letter will do

last thing baby

live long

I love you
