A letter to our baby Jude
I know you must be wondering who has been making all that noise outside. See that picture above? That’s us… your brand new parents!
We are so excited to meet you but we're also a little scared . We really have no clue how to go about raising a smart, well rounded, polite, happy child. But here is what we do know:
1. I’m going to let you eat dirt sometimes along with glue and crayons and all that jazz. You have to develop a taste of your own. And I don't want you t be afraid to get your hands dirty.
2. You are going to have soo many songs written about you. Your daddy loves music and you are the perfect inspiration.
3. We love going on vacations. We hope you like them too. When you get here, be prepared to be swaddled and carried along for the ride. I hope you like singing at the top of your lungs on car rides with the windows down. That's one of the ways your daddy and I fell in love!
4. You're going to take piano lessons and Daddy is going to teach you how to play guitar. Maybe we can start a family band but I'll just stick to singing.
I’m sure I’ll come up with a more detailed plan later, but this is all I’ve got so far. So let’s recap - you may occasionally have a dirt mustache, while jamming to a song your dad wrote about you, in the backseat of a car headed for the beach, with a harmonica in your hand. Sound like fun? I hope so.
Love,
your mom
