I'll never pressure you to play hockey, soccer, or baseball, or show an interest in them for that matter, but if you chose to i'll support you. I don't care if you play an instrument, are a fantastic artist, or the smartest kid on the block, i'll be proud of you still. I don't care if you go to med school, or clown college, live the big city life, or stay a small town boy. However there are a few things i wish for you.
I want you to always try your hardest. Sometimes things are difficult, they will be the biggest reward. Whether it be a subject in school, or something you have difficulty with in life. If you put forth your best effort, and do what you can, that's all i ask. Don't ever give up.
I want you to be kind. Treat others as you want to be treated. Try and be the bigger man, you will be proud of yourself for it.
Be happy. Find something you enjoy, and spend your life doing it. Whether you are a starving artist, a wealthy athlete, or are stocking shelves at the supermarket. As long as you are happy, you will have succeeded.
Find someone you love, to spend your life with, having a partner makes life more sweet.
Appreciate the people that really care for you. Whether they be friends or family. The ones that are there through thick and thin, good times and bad, are the people that deserve your time.
In this life, the important things seem to fall to they wayside. Everyone is always rushed, stressed, angry and impatient. Take time, slow down, live your life. I'm sure i will think of a thousand more things i want to impart on you, but at 7 months old, that is enough for now.
Love,
Your Momma
P.S.- I forgot, don't smoke, and DON'T DO DRUGS!

And the randomly-added in PS made me chuckle :)
