Mommy Loves You

Okay okay. So one thing that you should know is that up until now I have fought the urge to create a blog dedicated to my gushing about how awesome you are all of the time! I fought the urge not because the aforementioned things were not worth bragging about, but because I felt it a bit pretentious to assume that other people would care to read about the day to day happenings of our family and actually care.

So what changed my mind? I was telling my coworkers yet another story about how awesome you are and something you did that was so funny and adorable and they mentioned that I should have gotten the event on camera. "Ah! If only!" I replied. As you well know, we don't own a video camera. Your childhood will be remembered much in the same way as your father and I's childhoods were... via stories and photographs.

But wait! Now I understand. Why not write to you? Tell you of the things that we would have just happened to conjur up in a story 10, 20, 30 years from now?

I'm not promising that I will be able to write to you every day, but I can say that atleast more than once a month I will share some snippit of your childhood with you. Most likely the stories will be told much in the same way that they are mentioned to others, quickly and dramatically.

I hope you atleast appreciate the effort. And I hope that whenever I am old and I cannot remember that you will read to me so that I can chase the memories through my old brain. I hope to never have anything less than one last memory of you. xoxo
