Dear daughter,

Morning sweety, while I am typing you a letter, I am sipping my coffee. You know that I am not coffee person and I also have severe stomach problem which is not allow me to take a single sip of coffee, but since that the only addicted thing is permitted by government and society to consume daily. No need to worry darling, your mother is not a smoker, drinker or junkiest!! She’s just too old to do that! :D

Right now, I am working as a teacher, I don’t know when you read these letters I am still working or not, since your annoying prospective father wouldn’t allow me to work after married -_-, please tell him, he is a moron as soon as you can speak okay? But the profession as a teacher was led me to consider about having you. Let me be really bold honey, during my entire life, I was thinking a baby or kid is PARASITES, I don’t hate them, but let think about it logically and scientifically, the womb inside your belly taking food that you digest, affecting your emotion and body condition, do not remind me about childbirth, I am shivering only think about it.

Actually, their level just the same like Plasmodium which makes you got Malaria or heart worm parasites that destroyed almost entire livestock in the world because of the disease. For me, having kids just like suicide, you have to feed them, take care of them, fund their study for infinity time until allows them to walk on their feet. My goodness, I can barely afford that commitment only to taking care a lil selfish creature and put aside my precious life! That what I always thinking in my whole time. I don’t want to have any children, even husband. On next letter i will elaborate more about this “husband” and “married” things. For me, a child just NO.

Every perception about this child issues changes when I graduated and started to work in school. I am new teacher who started her first year from the scratch in private luxury school. They give me nice salary honey, The system, environment, colleagues are amazing! For a 24 old girls who lack of experience I’ve got everything. Here is the problem, everything just fine but the kids. The students here are spoiled brat, I understand why they pay me so high for teaching here because educate these rascals is such a pain in the ass. They are brilliant, they are everything but kind. They don’t know how to gratitude and respect their teachers.

I get hard times these days since I am new and only local teacher here, students keep testing me and underestimate me. Teaching is quite challenging these days and I was thinking how will my future child looks and behave like. I hope I could educate them well, balancing their manners, knowledge skills and religion. Not only world but also hereafter. It would be hard but I am willing to try. In addition, working with children, observing their characteristics, I can’t resist how annoying and adorable they are! They are cute and lovable. I hope I could get raise mine once in life time. Finally I change my mind and now, I am praying you will be coming soon sweety.

PS: I am taking picture with Joy, a son of my colleagues in school, he's adorable
PPS: Of course you will be cuter and I love you more! GTG

Can’t wait to see you

My wife did the same to our lovely daughter, I think this 'future' read will light up the heart of your child. Keep Positive and the time will come :)

Thank you for the comment. Very sweet of your wife! I hope I could write more and more. It helps me to improve my writing skills and also bring positive energy. What a good therapy! I hope she could read it one day and know that she has been awaited so long :D

Hi Tifany,
I love your post! Sorry you're having these problems. I work in a school, too, and I know you will get better at discipline. Also, they will behave better as they get to know you better.

Are you a teacher too? Nice to hear from you. I hope you could write about surviving in school next time. Hehe.. Yeah, I am still struggle with class management and discipline. I am trying to be firm but sometimes it just doesn't work. I need to work harder! Thank you for your support Karen

I wish I knew what the magic is! One thing is to keep them busy and interested! (No, I'm not a teacher, just a Para Educator. :(
Our school district is using PBIS - Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports. You can research it if you like!

Yeah, that was I tried. Somehow it works. I hope after maintaining and gaining their respect as new teacher, they will behave well.
I just started to find it on Google, that was nice I think. We have kinda similar curriculum in Indonesia about behavior but our school is IB school and we more focused with STEAM and STEAM, sometimes the teachers just too tired with STEAM Challenge, STEAM Project and others. We did not concern about PBIS and see what's happening now with raging students
