Heeeyyyy Baby!!
Seems like every time I open this particular text window, I find myself here for the first time in a long time. Something I actually apologize for because I started this with the intention of giving you a post to read for at least every week of your childhood. I constantly promise myself that I'll do better and I don't lol. What I can promise you is: I've remembered every day of life with you since the last post therefore filling in the gaps during any of our numerous conversations won't be a problem.
So, what's been up since the last post? Seeing as how the last post was about your first day of school, A LOT! Lol.
So there's plenty of stuff to catch up on. In that time Mommy and I got married, you killed your school year and graduated! (I didn't cry! My eye balls were sweating.) And the biggest news of all, This is the year you become a big sister!!! That's right baby. Mommy is close to 7 months pregnant and come September we're expecting to bring your baby sister home. Mommy and Daddy wanted her to be a he, but you said you wanted a little sister, so I guess God saw to it that you had your way. We're all so very excited. And now, it looks like the name of this blog may have to change from Forever For Zairah to something incorporating your baby sis. I was thinking I'd name her Alise, but I feel it has a middle name vibe and might want to go with something a little different for her first. Who knows? I'll see how I feel when I meet her.
I can't stop imagining what life will be with the two of you. I day dream about seeing you teach her all the things you've learned. You've been very vocal about wanting to show her how to play and how to dance, and how to ride a scooter like yours. What's dope is the age gap between the two of you will be very similar if not the same as the age gap between me and your tio Rudy. I just really hope that you guys have the relationship me and Rudy have now as opposed to the one we had growing up. Which wasn't always bad, but it's definitely not as good as what it is now.
Pretty soon we'll be leaving NYC, the land that I love. Something else that you've been very vocal about wanting to do. I truly love NYC, but I loathe winter and can't live in it any longer. Plus the three of you deserve a bigger house, so West Coast here we come! However that's still a story for another post. When I get home I'm going to put together a post covering a few of the other events I missed writing about, primarily the wedding and your graduation!
Until then, love you baby girl! Behave your self.... and also help me decide what we're gonna change the title of this blog to. Lol
FFZ.
