Dear Mama

Dear Mama,

Your baby boy is a father now. 

A father of triplets!!!

I know, I know…it’s crazy. The thought of you being a grandmother is an intense one. It’s hard for me to imagine. What’s easier for me to imagine is how much you would love these little babies. They’re the love of my life, the most precious little humans I’ve ever seen. 

Maybe you’d be proud of me. I think you would be.

I learned how to be a father from you. Your example of loving me has never left. It’s such a treasure to have experienced you this life.

Hey Mom

Hey mom,

It’s almost been a whole month since I started this letter. Good golly, time has flown.

Most importantly, the babies are doing great. I cannot even begin to explain how much I love them. New capacities of emotional sensation have been unlocked. I’m still getting to know these feeling. It’s a feeling that I think you could relate to. I wish we could talk about that one.

I need you. Well, to be more specific, I want your guidance from the spirit realm now more than ever. 

Do I go to school?

What about a job?

These babies bring as much certainty as they do mystery. 

Thanks Ma, for being everything that you were when you were around. You did a damn good job. 

Love,

-Tyler
