Dear Son,

With only days remaining in your mother’s pregnancy, we couldn’t be more ready to meet you. Your mother is having a very hard time during these last few days, so remember that when you’re an angst-ridden teenager…

I know this is weird, but I’m going to miss your mom being pregnant. It’s been really gratifying, being able to take care of her throughout these last 9 months, and helping to ensure you arrive as healthy as possible. I wonder if you’ll have hair? Enjoy it, we thin eventually. I can’t wait to teach you things, so ask as many questions as you want. I know a little bit about everything, and I’m pretty good at faking the rest, a quality I hope you get from me. Hopfully you get your mother’s attention to detail though… My brain is all over the place!

We are ready, so feel free to come whenever you want… see you soon!

Dad
