A Special Note from a Daddy-To-Be

Everyone knows how important Moms are, but sometimes Dads get the short end of the stick. But the truth is, every child needs a positive and Godly male role model in their lives to help them grow and develop into who God has called them to be. Sadly, in today's society, more and more children go to bed each night without a Daddy. This hurts my heart to think about. Dads are SO important! 

By no merit of my own, I have been blessed with a man who is super eager and ready to take on the responsibilities of fatherhood. Today, he wrote me a little note reminding me of this.

I love you, Justin. Thanks for being such a good man.


Alannah,

I am so excited about this baby, like seriously I just got a huge surge of Joy.

If it’s a boy I’m going to be dedicated to spending time with him, raising him in the ways of the Lord, teaching him to respect and love his mother and to honor and cherish women and not idolize them. Im’ going to teach him to be watchful, to stand firm in the faith, to act like a man, to be strong and to let everything he does be done in love. I’m going to teach him about dignity but most importantly how to Love the Lord with all his heart, soul, mind and strength.

If it’s a little girl I’m going to be dedicated to Daddy daughter dates, making her feel beautiful, give her encouraging words of affirmation, tell her what to expect in a man and to demonstrate that by example, I will cherish and protect her and teach her that if any boy is to date her he has to date me first. I will teach her that she has value and worth and that her body, her virginity and her life is to be held with high esteem and honor and not to just be thrown away to just anybody. But most importantly I will teach her to be a woman of God, to be Christ like and to teach her to be a Titus 2 and a Proverbs 31 woman.

Love, 
Justin
