My life was forever changed the day your parents asked me to be your Godmother. I was utterly touched for even being considered, let alone being selected as your Godmother. Since that day, I made promises to you. Someday, when you're old enough, I will show you these promises, and you will see that I fulfill them every day. Here are 10 promises I make to you, my greatest blessing, my Godson:

1. I promise to love you unconditionally.

Without a doubt, I will shower you with all the hugs and kisses. Any opportunity I get to snuggle with you, I am taking it. You will always feel my love.

2. I promise to guide you.

As you grow up, you will be faced with obstacles. I will be your guided light to help you overcome those obstacles. You can always confide in me. I will be there with open ears and open arms if you ever have a problem.

3. I promise to teach you His love.

I will be there to help you see that His love is eternal and it gives us strength. I will teach you to pray to our father above and to let you know of the things that are right.

4. I promise to support you.

I will be at your hockey, baseball, football, or whatever sport game you pick. I'll be your number one fan on the sidelines. I may or may not be holding a huge poster with your name and number on it.

5. I promise to be a role model to you.

I will always strive to be a woman you can look up to. Someone who you look to for advice or guidance.

6. I promise to always brag about how awesome you are.

Just so you know, I already do that. I am quite fond of you. Whenever I can, I show everyone how perfect you are and that we both have red hair so we're a great fit.

7. I promise to make you smile.

All I want is for you to be happy and I will make it a personal goal to always make you smile. It's not very hard.

8. I promise to be the cool Godmother.

I'm not going to be like those other Godmothers, I'm going to be the cool Godmother. We will go on adventures with your brother, build spaceships out of Legos, have racecar races, bake all the sugary treats, go to the park, make blanket forts, and so much more.

9. I promise you'll be the most stylish Godson.

Your Godmother will hook you up with the coolest clothes, don't worry. I already have you rocking flannels with a bow tie. You're as cute as a button.

10. I promise to always be there.

Luckily, I am not far from you and we get to see each other quite a bit. Even if i'm not there in person, I am always one phone call or FaceTime chat away from you. I will always have your back.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
