Letter to Mason from his Daddy...

Okay, most of you who have been around me a lot since I have been pregnant know how overly emotional I am right now, and after I read this letter Brandon wrote to Mason, there was NOTHING but tears!!! So sweet! Here it is...

Mason,
Every day I wonder about who you will look like, the kinds of foods you will like, what sports you will play and how much of a blessing you are to me and Amanda. I cannot wait until the day you are actually here so that I may hold you in my arms and be called a father. I know that Amanda and I are going to do our best to raise you in the way that we see proper and to love and cherish you unconditionally.
Right now I am in Boone, NC finishing school at Appalachian State while Amanda is living back home in Columbia, SC. I know that I need to finish school so that I may be able to provide you and Amanda with a home. Though this may be very difficult at times we know that we are strong enough to make it through this rough patch in our lives.
You are a true blessing to everyone and will be loved by many. Just to name a few... Mommy, Myself, Mimi, Granddad, Ashley, Caleigh, Alona, Jim, Tami, Cody, Dylan and everyone that we know and that is related to us cannot await your arrival. You will be loved by many people and we will have the support to raise you the best we can.
I already love you even though you are not here yet, and cannot wait to teach you how to play baseball. Keep growing and kicking mommy in the stomach.

Love,

Dad

Brandon, you are going to be the best dad. To write such a letter as a legacy to Mason is absolutely incredible to me. You know how I love letters! You have received enough from me over the years. You are a special man and we are blessed to have you as our son. Love, Mom and Dad
