I don't care what nobody says, we gonna have a baby.
We had a baby.
Baby Roman, born 8 lbs 5 oz, at 5:53 on October the 11th, 2008.
It was a completely natural birth.
8'5 no drugs!
That is what a woman is made of.
Rosa is the epitome of motherhood.
I stood outside with my ear to the door.
I cried when I heard him cry.
He is the most beautiful thing I have yet to see,
and he just makes me want to see it all.
He was born into an awful world, but we'll protect him.
It's all about the people who love you for who you are,
exactly who you are.
And that's family.
He'll find liars, and cheaters, and thieves, and propaganda, and the kind of people who love to kill another persons spirit.
He'll find his share of the Sea, and Bruce, and Edgar, and Kates, and his saints and the rest.
But he'll also find his share of honesty, integrity, strength, and love.
There will be people who hate him for no reason.
Or hate him just to hate.
Or hate him because he's loved so damn much.
Or hate him because he has the capacity to love so much.
Or hate him because they hate themselves.
But we're a family of watchers,
and he'll always come back to us.
Because you cannot run from unconditional love..., for too long.
This world will make him laugh, I hope.
It'll probably make him cry.
It'll frustrate him and break his heart and sometimes he'll loose his soul.
This world is really hard, I'll tell him and teach him and he'll know.
This world can break the strongest of people...,
and the weak usually get far.
They can look you in the eye and lie and enjoy every deceitful second.
But don't worry about them, not a one.
Because in the end you'll die with love.
You'll die loved and seasoned and open and honest and wise.
We'll always be there to save you.
I know this because they saved me.
I love you so much and I have no idea whom you'll become.
the scariest part is, like with any form of true love, it doesn't matter who are are; it only matters that you are alive, that you're breathing, that you continue to breathe.
That is it, that is all.
Just stay here and breathe with me and I promise I will love you until the day I am buried.
I swear it.
God damn this world is so sick.
It'll infect him, like it does us all.
I just want him to hold on to the beauty.
It's the only way to die human, with a pulse and a heart.
Welcome to the family Roman.
We'll never let you go.
Get ready, you're an Anyaeji.
Damn he will be adored, he will be smothered, he will be taught.
Life is amazing,
and I'm sorry to every single one of you who can't see that.
I owe it all to my home base.
They made sure I knew what love is,
and they continue to do so each day.
Oh my little Romy, thank you for coming.
The new kid on the block, he's already got me wrapped around his finger.
Can't touch this.
