Ode to my first born

My Sweet Adrian… this is a letter to celebrate you. Thank you for being you!

Thank you for your unconditional love. Thank you for laughing at my corny jokes and my silly ways. Thank you for playing all those boring board games and reading books with me when you could be watching some really awesome movies on the TV. Thanks for cheering me on, even when I don’t know I need cheering on.

What a great son you are! You are fun, silly, playful, kind, loving, smart, and handsome and so much more. I relish the time we spend together, even when we both are a bit crabby. I love seeing you grow and change. I marvel at your many accomplishments and will always support you, no matter what you choose to do.

Thank you for being you!

You help me to grow… to gain insight into how strong I can be. Thank you for being you! Thank you for being the person who celebrates how special his mother and brother is. Thank you for making everyday a bit more special than the last. Thank you for taking the time to write me little notes and reminders. Thank you for enjoying your baby brother’s company without complaint.

Thank you for being you!

You are one magnificent individual… a true hero in my book. I love you so much, and that goes without say… but I thought I would say it anyway… I love you!

AND… thank you for being YOU!

Always,
Mom.
