Meu filho...



I have no idea about his name, it will be up to his mother actually, but all the rest I will be the responsible for.
He’s gonna be the most polite and lovely child between his friends. Words as “please” and “thank you” will be constantly part of his vocabulary. Every single time he left and arrives home he will have to give me a kiss and to his mother too, doesn’t matter where he’s going to and how long for.
I will annoy him to brush his teeth after every single meal until he starts to do that by his self. TV and videogame he won’t have in his room, actually it won’t worry me very much because he will rather be occupying his mind with healthier things like sports, music, art, or any other hobby which he will chose by his self after his mother and I showing him different options.
He will speak perfect portuguese with me whoever will be his mother and wherever we’re gonna live. By the way, we're gonna talk a lot (I said A LOT!). I’ll spend at least 2 whole days of the week just to talk to him whatever we are doing.
If he gets lucky and born with his beautiful mother’s face, he’s gonna have heaps of girls! But I will explain him that what really matters is not quantity but quality, and he will quickly understand that apart from their religion, colour, background, or whatever, just a few and the most important ones will give him experience and help him to become a real and gentle man.
Any way… To be honest I have no idea if I will be really able to do such a good job with a son, and I don’t even know if one day I will have one. But I can say today that he will be the most loved child ever! As Junia said once… “My son was not even born yet but I already love him a lot!” :)
