An Open Letter to My Son, Aden

Dec 19, 2012 at 6:30am by Tamera Mowry

It’s been over a month now, and I am still in complete awe of my beautiful baby boy.  The love I have for this chubby, squirmy, adorable little bundle of joy is hard to put into words, but I wanted to try and capture it so that down the road, he knows exactly how I am feeling right now. I decided to hand write him a letter to welcome him into the world and tell him just how much he means to me. And since my amazing fans have been there with me every step of the way, I wanted to share the letter with all of you too!

      I love it! I also wrote my daughter a letter and store it in her 1st year scrapbook. Motherhood is fun, inspiring and at times scary but that's the awe of it. It evokes so many emotions. I am extremely happy for you, I wish you and Tia the very best in your marriages and motherhood. Aden and Cree are two handsome boys enjoy, cherish and honor them because they grow up too fast. -Jenni

      Tamera, First I would like to say Congratulations! I am beyond happy for you and Adam for the little blessing that GOD has given in Aden. He is absolutely beautiful!
      Your letter is just precious. I’m sure when he’s old enough to read this letter and the love you put into it, he will appreciate and value every word. Thank you for sharing this personal and dear piece of your life with all of us. You really make me feel excited to one day (hopefully soon ;) experience Mommyhood for myself.
      Enjoy every moment of what this experience will bring to you and Adams lives! & I look forward to all the future things you’ll share. Praying for you guys always.
      =)

      That is a very sweet letter. When I found out I was pregnant I wanted my soon-to-be-daughter to know just how much I loved & how I felt when I found out about her. I have written her about 3 letters telling her all about how she make mommy feel. I plan to write her at lest one letter a year to let her know that she is & always will be my pride & joy! Keep up the great work. You two are amazing mothers!

      I just love you two! Since Sister, Sister! Your babies are soooo cute! Tamera, I can see both you and Adam in some of your son's pictures. Tia, I love the hair cut! I want to cut mine and my husband has asked me too but I am "chicken." I too have very long hair. I have always wanted Halle Berry's hair cut. I love your show--Tia & Tamera and I hope you put it on dvd because I will be buying every season you do. My husband says haven't you seen this already? I don't care I will watch you over and over and over! Keep up the GREAT work, love you both!

      Aden is beautiful and I love the letter you wrote to your son.

      I too used a Doula. I also labored in the bathtub with lavender oil while being massaged by a labor massage therapist. Zen music played in the background while the husband read poetry. Pure bliss until the contractions were 1-2 minutes apart. "Excuse me please, I need to speak with Ms. Epidural." :-) My Doula reminded me that I should continue with the natural birth. After I swung on her(kidding ;-)). I gave birth to beautiful baby girl naturally.

      As I mentioned in a previous post - I am so very proud of both of you. I would love for both of you to wear Fab Mom t-shirts. I believe you define what Fab Moms are truly about.

      So Tamera, since the birth didn't make the show.....I'm interested to know, did the Dula work or did you ask for drugs?!?! Hahaha If you were able to give birth naturally ( I did) Would you do it again?

      Congrats to you and Adam!

      After 2 hours of searching I found it. Psalms 127:3 Children are an heritage of the Lord and the fruit of the womb is His reward. King Jame version. Good News Bible reads: Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a real lessing. Amen
