||From Aborted Baby to its Mother|| (2)

Mommy dearest,

My life is great and I owe it all to you. I decided to give you a copy of my biography outline, Barnes & Noble has been harassing me for the book but I haven't had the time to finish it. They're just excited because according to the critics..."it's new and unique. A biography written as a letter to his Mom from the perspective of specific ages."

Let me know what you think and what I should add.

You were so nervous bringing me to school with you today. I felt you're heart beating every time you'd pick me up to hold me. I saw some eyes on us mom, but who cares. As long as you have me right. That’s all that matters. I'm gonna make you such a proud mommy.

I know you're still upset that I'm a junior but at least you've gotten through this long with it. Don't worry, when I'm old enough I'll have people call me by my middle name just to make you happy.

I said my first word, "Dah dah". Daddy was so excited. You were too but I know you wanted me to say "mommy". It's okay though, I'll probably get to that in a few months.

Dr. Seuss—best books ever. Thanks for coming to my preschool graduation. It was awesome looking out into the crowd and seeing you and Daddy's face. I was so nervous Mommy. Learning how to read last year was the best. You never gave up when you were teaching me. And now I'm reading in front of all the jealous parents that wish they're kids could read. I hope I'm making you proud.

It's set. I want to be a firefighter when I grow up. All the boys in the 1st grade want to be one too. The girls thought we were weird but I don't care,they all have cooties anyway.

Learning how to ride the bike Grandma got me was so hard. Daddy told me that big boys don't cry so after I scraped my knee, I came to you crying. I didn't want Daddy to see me.

I surprised you today after your hard day of work with my spelling bee award. It was a piece of cake Mom. I guess all the random words you have me spelling paid off.

Skip 6th and 7th grade? How come you didn't ask me mom? My principal should've talked to us together. I feel so young in the 8th grade. Even though everyone's really excited for me, I'm nervous. I guess it's fine because you know best. Oh, I made your favorite for dinner today—macaroni and cheese.

I miss 9th grade. Sophomore year is boring. Especially because I'm taking AP classes with all Juniors and Seniors. They said that 10th grade classes are too easy for me, but it doesn't really matter to me.

President of the school soon to be President of the United States. Senior year's the best. I rule the school. After being named the captain of my football team, I knew this would be a good year. Just a little stressful with SATs and College Applications.

I miss you Mom. I'm not gonna lie, being in a dorm is a new experience. Although it's my second year here, it still feels awkward without your delicious coconut shrimp. Isn't it great not paying for my education. After getting a 2400 on the SAT’s, seeing tears of joy run down your face. That made me so happy.

What would I have done if you weren’t beside me when I gave my speech today? Discovering a symptom-less cure for AIDS is such a big deal. There were so many people to thank but of course you were number 1. I’m so excited to go to Africa and give this medicine to all those who need it.

Too bad none of this ever happened, and never will

You killed me.

Sincerely,

Your son that would've made a difference
