An Open Letter To My Future Daughter
emily tuverson

Hey baby girl, it's your Momma here. I know you are years away from being born, but being my daughter, you must know a couple of things before you come into this world.



1. I'm not sorry for breaking out into song, especially musicals and especially in public. I am a singer and theatre kid by nature, so what else do you expect from me?

2. If you want to play soccer, I am not stopping you. If you want to dance, I am not stopping you. If you want to play football I am not stopping you. If you want to be a figure skater, I am not stopping you. DO NOT LET OTHER PEOPLE STOP YOU FROM ACHIEVING YOUR DREAMS. I will NOT be one of those people. I will ALWAYS help you reach your goals, achieve your dreams, and shoot for the stars.

3. Don't be afraid to tell me anything! I want to have an open relationship with you, and if that means holding you at 3 a.m. because you want to kill yourself, or if you want to have sex with your boyfriend and that means me going to buy condoms, I'll do it.

4. Don't change to impress a boy. PLEASE. I made that mistake several times. When you meet THE ONE, he won't care that you don't have makeup on and that your hair isn't done.

5. I love you. More than you will ever know. So does Daddy. We will ALWAYS be here for you. You may disappoint me at times, but I will never hate you. Period. Full stop. End of story. That will never change for as long as I am alive.



I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always. As long as I am living, my baby you'll be.

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
