First born

It's the second week since that great day I learnt about your coming.

The past weekend our friend Odwa organized us a surprise party to welcome us (newly weds) to Gauteng, it was great, we had fun, spoke and laughed a lot.

On the home front: I can't believe I get to watch your mom's tummy changing in shape and form, it excites me to know you are growing in there buddy.

I am still overwhelmed, excited and very grateful.
I am forever evaluating my life, auditing ,changing here and there positioning myself to be a great Dad.

I am applying myself differently at work, working smart as if you are watching.
I am gonna make you proud, I am already proud to know you are on your way.

Your mom, my wife: i can't wait for our fighting for her attention, oh! She calls me papi and you will too and I will call you papi.

So papi I will write again next Monday.
I am watching you!!

Men are meant to be leaders, manufactured to lead.

It is such a sorry site when you see a man lacking in purpose and vision.
He follows whoever seems to know where they are going.

On a more controversial note, have you seen the majority of born again Christian men?
It is a sorry site, pussy footing in all directions, like a brother was born with a blank brain and it's being filled as he goes.

I understand why there is a lack or dwindling numbers of men going to church, born again Christian men 's hand shakes?their hugs? I mean really was Jesus that feminine?

I feel for women married to some of the folks at church, like really!!
I mean a man who idolizes another man so much he wishes he was that man.

Ok!

My first born

When the news of your presence reached me on the 01/08/12 I found myself day dreaming about you.

I suddenly started thinking and doubting myself, asked myself if I was deserving of being a father, if I would make enough money to get you the best of everything, if I was wise enough to raise you in the ways of the Lord,

I have in the past wrote you letters, telling you how much I love you, you will have a chance to go through them someday, in case you only see this one, I love you, I love you and I love you.

The excitement is overwhelming me, I day dream, I smile at the slightest provocation.

Did I tell you I love you? Ok I love you, the greatest miracle that has ever happened to me, you are God's love in visual terms.

I am beaming from ear to ear, I am naming you Motheo or Thato .
You will play hockey professionally, be the greatest scientist ever maybe?

When we get to meet I will hug you!
When we get to meet I will kiss you!
When we get to meet I will pose with you!
When we get to meet I will say a prayer!
When we get to meet we will be joyous!
When we get to meet I will help you cry!

For now I wait for you,
For now I promise to be patient in my waiting
For now I am learning all I can about being a perfect dad.
For now I am praying for wisdom!

I spent last night praying in my sleep, with my hand on your Mom's tummy!

Your Mom is beautiful inside out, she is perfect, intelligent more than me!
You are in the perfect home I know.

I could write all day long, let me end here for now.
I love you, I love you, I love you!!
