My life was forever changed the day your parents asked me to be your Godmother. I was utterly touched for even being considered, let alone being selected as your Godmother. Since that day, I made promises to you. Someday, when you're old enough, I will show you these promises, and you will see that I fulfill them every day. Here are 10 promises I make to you, my greatest blessing, my Godson:
1. I promise to love you unconditionally.
Without a doubt, I will shower you with all the hugs and kisses. Any opportunity I get to snuggle with you, I am taking it. You will always feel my love.
2. I promise to guide you.
As you grow up, you will be faced with obstacles. I will be your guided light to help you overcome those obstacles. You can always confide in me. I will be there with open ears and open arms if you ever have a problem.
3. I promise to teach you His love.
I will be there to help you see that His love is eternal and it gives us strength. I will teach you to pray to our father above and to let you know of the things that are right.
4. I promise to support you.
I will be at your hockey, baseball, football, or whatever sport game you pick. I'll be your number one fan on the sidelines. I may or may not be holding a huge poster with your name and number on it.
5. I promise to be a role model to you.
I will always strive to be a woman you can look up to. Someone who you look to for advice or guidance.
6. I promise to always brag about how awesome you are.
Just so you know, I already do that. I am quite fond of you. Whenever I can, I show everyone how perfect you are and that we both have red hair so we're a great fit.
7. I promise to make you smile.
All I want is for you to be happy and I will make it a personal goal to always make you smile. It's not very hard.
8. I promise to be the cool Godmother.
I'm not going to be like those other Godmothers, I'm going to be the cool Godmother. We will go on adventures with your brother, build spaceships out of Legos, have racecar races, bake all the sugary treats, go to the park, make blanket forts, and so much more.
9. I promise you'll be the most stylish Godson.
Your Godmother will hook you up with the coolest clothes, don't worry. I already have you rocking flannels with a bow tie. You're as cute as a button.
10. I promise to always be there.
Luckily, I am not far from you and we get to see each other quite a bit. Even if i'm not there in person, I am always one phone call or FaceTime chat away from you. I will always have your back.
