This is hard for me, Meagan. I’m usually the tough one, you know? The guy that gets it done. Mr. Macho. A man’s man. But when I hold you, I go soft.
And in that, there’s a lesson. It’s ok to be gentle. You taught me that, and you’re not even a day old. Let that be a lesson to you, sweetheart: You are always learning, it never stops.
We adults have high hopes for you, kiddo. We always do, it’s how we are. But my biggest hope is that you be a kid! Learning to be a kid first is so important to learning to be an adult.
Heck, I’m a kid inside and I’m 38 years old. I love Spiderman, and Mars bars.
Always live in The Now, Meagan,always!
Think of the future, believe in the past, but live in The Now.
Living for the future takes away who you are right now.
Living in the past, creates a heavy chip on your shoulder.
Living in The Now, well, that’s powerful. It gives you time to smell the roses, to see that butterfly, or lets you appreciate the song playing at the county fair.
That’s it! Appreciate your Life.

    great advice! Is meagan real? Just curious. Yeah, it’s embarrassing to act like a kid when you’re obviously an adult. (I bet I could get away with it for few more years, since I’m so short! LOL !)

    My wife and i are trying for a kid. I’ve had 3 or 4 dreams where we made a little baby and everytime, we named the little girl Meagan.

    So . i hope that she’s real one day!

    “Think of the future, believe in the past, but live in The Now”.. I love that line.

    Excellent. I love Spiderman, too, and the first graders I tutor make fun of me for watching Avatar: the Last Airbender.

    Good luck, and thank you for entering!
