sweet small Dude~ 2 sweet years ago I laughed you in to the world – literally. I won’t scar you with too many gory details, but I will tell you that you came into the world as I laughed out loud – a great, big loud, guffaw…. and I had the pure pleasure of pulling you up onto my stomach. I was the very first one to touch you as you were born. You have brought me nothing but pure joy since that very first moment. Watching you grow, absorbing the world around you, inquisitive and delighted to learn, I’m reminded each day of the treasure you bring into my world. As all mothers do, I have goals, dreams and wishes for you. I have, as you can imagine, dozens of them, but on this 2nd anniversary of that laughing moment, I will limit myself to the two great wishes I have for you. I wish for the kind heart I see you in now to stay firmly in place. Keep it, nurture it, handle it with care. Don’t ever let anyone tell you that you are too sensitive. You are the first to hold your sister’s hand when she is scared, the first to run for the rag when someone splits water, .The best part of my day is the joy infused by your smile, your hugs, the tender way you put your hand on my face or suddenly say, “Mommy, how ARE YOU” I couldn’t live without your affection and kindness. 2.Be a student. Be a teacher. Learn at every opportunity. Read. Be inquisitive. Ask. And when you know something and know it well – teach others. Do not hoard your knowledge, your gifts – share them. There is inherent beauty in being both student and teacher. It is a gift to learn and a privilege to teach. And nothing gets to me more than hearing you say, “I love you, Mommy”. Thank you, sweet, small dude – for completing our family. I will always love you, my buddy. Happy birthday
