Dear child of mine in the future,
You must think this is weird that I'm writing a letter to you when I'm still in my second year of college and don't even know if I have met your mother yet. I hope you are doing well in whatever you are doing right now. I wonder what your name(s) will be. Right now I hope you are either called Ryan or Lucas if you are a boy, or Kim or Michele if you are a girl...as long as your mom doesn't have different ideas for your names. I think Ilana would be an awesome name as well if you are a girl. Well, you would already have your names by the time you read this anyways.
I would really like to encourage you right now. My hope is that you are actively seeking the Lord, but I know I can't force that upon you. I'm definitely going to pray about that for you.
It is my hope that I treat you well. If you see me acting in ways I shouldn't be, I hope you are correcting me in my ways. If you are going through struggles, I pray that you would feel comfortable in approaching me about them...or you can talk to your mom too if you feel more comfortable doing that. I want you to know that I'm not perfect and that I do go through my own struggles. You may ask me about them sometime and I'm sure I would be willing to answer. I hope I can support you in ways that would help you.
Know that whatever decisions you make in the future, I will always love you. I know this isn't much, but it's all I can think about writing for now. I'll definitely be seeing you around.
Love,
Kenneth
