9 Things I Want for my Babies


1.   Fear God, Love God, and Accept Him as your Savior.  First and foremost.

2.   Love yourself.  You are wonderful, despite those days when you feel less than wonderful.

3.   Know that we don’t always get what we want, but please, please fight for what you want.

4.   Stand up for what you believe in.  Always.  And don’t let anyone walk over you.

5.   Know when to speak your mind and when to keep your mouth shut. (Mommy needs to work on this one…)

6.   Be who you are.  No, it is not always easy and not everyone will like you, but that is okay.  You are who you are; that’s just the way it is. 

7.   Surround yourself with good people.

8.   When the time comes, find a mate that respects you and that you respect.  Boys:  Treat her the way you would treat your Mama.  Baby Girl:  He better treat you as good as your Daddy treats you. 

9.   Know that Daddy and I are so very proud of you.  Always.
