I was browsing around, searching for different sites, new blogs, new ideas for articles and I found this great site called ‘rules for my unborn son‘.
It’s a set of rules that this guy, Walker Lamond, puts down for his future son. You can even add your own on the blog – which I suggest you check out.
I love this kind of stuff. I’ve learned so many important lessons from my Dad and my Mom that I’d love to get on paper. And I would love to have a list of rules or guidelines for my unborn son or daughter that they could look over every now and then.
Some are funny, some catch you by surprise and get you thinking. But it’s a great list, have a look and add one if you can think of anything.
Here’s a list for my unborn son. Have a read and let me know your thoughts.
