Anakin Skywalker

So kiddo. I've settled on a pseudonym for you. Like it? I think it's rather suiting. After all, just like Anakin, your potential and capability for growth is off the charts. The only question is...can I handle it?

In recent months, you have become by far my biggest responsibility and potentially quite possibly my greatest investment for the future. And yet, even after saying that, the number of hours I actually spend on you is rather limited. And that worries me. 

How are you doing really? What am I supposed to do kiddo? I refuse to fail, but even your name implies that I will. I don't deserve you, and I'm pretty sure I can't handle you. You will surpass me in but a few short years...and then where will you go? White or black? Light or dark?

And yet I am confident that He won't let you go. That no matter the extent of my failings and your failings, He will not release His hold on you. And you will forever remain His beloved child.
