OPEN LETTER TO MY UNBORN KID!!

Dear Junior,
Hope you live to read this letter, that I write to you in your absentia.
Jr, I don't know whom your mother is but I know I am you dad. I wish your mother will be my wife and not  those one night stand ladies dad has been taking home after several bottles of beer with buddies at the local. I hope she will be a mother like your grandmother; to love and care for you. She will not be the kind who forgets you and watch the cheap soap operas all day and study her mobile phone everytime you need her most.
The outside world will be unfair to you, me and your mom will try our best to make you feel comfortable, give you the best we can afford on earth and advice you on how to survive the hard way for there is nothing easy on earth. Your friends will betray you, your lover will play you, but I and mom will love you forever, that I promise.
Dad will make mistakes once or twice, please forgive me. I may come home late to disturb your sleep after watching a game with my men, just understand. I will punish you when you make mistake that just like me you wont understand why until you grow up; I dont raise quacks in my family. Your mom will quarell you severally and correct you every now and then, respect her.
As you grow up you will make friends and enemies, hope you have more enemies than friends so that you get a reason to work hard and trust few people. You will love and get hurt just like your parents, you are not alone son, keep moving.
One day you will get married, I wish you have a peacefull marriage like the one I wish to have with your mother.
Finally Jr, learn to obey those in authority, be honest to yourself and faithful to you loved ones. Be kind to nature, read the Bible and pray, that is my greatest weakness I hope you will overcome. Live your life knowing there is no other chance. Enjoy when its due and handle situations with maturity.
"Akili ni mali Ujinga ndio hasara, sasa tutafanya nini ndugu yangu???"
I hope you read this letter when you will be 5 years old. Hope it finds you well,wether I will be alive or dead just know there is nothing more than what is in this letter Jr. Have a good life as you start your journey on earth. Byee!!! Love you Jr.

Yours Loving,
Dad
