Eight is GREAT!

Dear CT,

Here we sit with the sun shinning in, it is April 4th again and you are rolling yet another year older.

It’s so true what people say about time passing in the blink of an eye. How on earth are you eight today? Just yesterday you were three months old, snuggled on my chest, fitting perfectly between my chin and legs, warming my very core as I watched you breath.

You, my boy, have grown into an amazing eight year old. I delight in your whimsy, I am awe-struck by your tenderness, and I am filled with utter pride at how you have persevered with your studies.

You, my boy, are a good friend, a gentle brother, and a caring soul.

You, my boy, are filled with silly, jokes and on many occasions just can’t get enough.

You, my boy, have freckles to die for, hair that has a life of it’s own and a physicality built for sports.

You, my boy, our first-born son, the child who changed our world in an instant on this day eight years ago, you my boy…are a joy.

I love you. May 8 be nothing but GREAT!

Love,

Mom
