Dear Future Kids,

Here is a List of five things I want you to know...

1. LOVE PEOPLE AND USE THINGS - NOT LOVE THINGS AND USE PEOPLE.
2. To handle yourself, use your head...To Handel others, use your heart. Always listen to your heart, never your pride, anger or sadness, those things will only blind you...I quote buddah "Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned"
3. Being hurt is part of life.... The hardest thing is to believe people when they show you that they are assholes,because we all have that undying hope and faith in love, but please please believe people when they show you they are assholes, and brush yourself off, thank them for the memories and move on BUT never give up on love...Life is to short for you to waste your time and your heart.
4. Your mother, future brothers and sisters and future other parent along with loads of cousins and uncles love you...you have all the love you need around you....look to the sky for love from god...look to us for love from ground level and especially look inside yourself for that complete and fulfilling love...you are the only one that can fulfill that...No thing or person can do that but you..
5. Last but not least always have compassion and forgiveness in your heart...no matter how many times people may wrong you or use you...always live with compassion and forgiveness in your heart..

Well that's it, cant wait to meet you kids someday in the future...promise not to give me such a hard time though....Thanks...

With all my Love,

Your Future Mom
