You want to do what's called a codicil. It needs to be executed with the same formalities as a will, according to Florida law. The requirements for execution of a codicil to a will can be found at Section 732.502, Florida Statutes. To ensure that the codicil will be valid and enforceable, please contact a Florida estate planning attorney. It should be fairly inexpensive. Regards,
