You are my Sonshine

Dear K-man,


As I reflect on the last four years of your life, I am still surprised that the thing I never thought I wanted was the very thing I needed most; a son.

 A son treats his mother with adoration and devotion, she is his first "true-love" and his allegience to her is unfaltering and strong for all of his days.

You are my prince, you brighten my day with unsolicited declarations of love and affection. Every emotion and feeling I pour into you comes back to wash over me ten-fold.

 I cherish the fact that you still desire my attention when you are playing, yelling "look at me Mommy" for any physical act you attempt.
 Things I love about you:
Without prompting you will lean over and kiss me and say "I love you".
Whatever I make, you think I am the "Best" cook in the world.
When I am sick you cover me with your special blanket and leave your beloved "teddy" with me so I'll feel better.
You have a truly tender heart, for your sister, your dog, family and friends.
You are FUNNY; way beyond your 48 months on Earth.
 I am saddened that you are growing up so quickly and yet I can't wait to see the amazing man you are destined to become.

 You have had my heart since the first moment I saw you and your hold on me grows stronger every day.
 My wish for you is to lead those who are weaker than you, follow the example of those who are brave and righteous, and share your gifts with others to create harmony and peace to those you reach.


Happy Birthday my beautiful, beautiful, boy!
With all of my love, Mommy

Happy Birthday to a Boy who is loved every second of every day more than most could ever hope for.

As I look at these photos of this gorgeous child and know the joy he brings to your life every day I am so grateful that you share the bond of mother and son...an unbreakable one that will only continue to grow.

Val, the blessings of K and A were destined to be yours because your heart knows no bounds and they deserve every single drop of that special brand of love, humor and devotion that only YOU can give.

Enjoy this day...and every day with your babies!
