Looking back over the past seven years, I realize, how very lucky I am.
I have a son who is as smart as anything. Probably smarter then me now, and will most assuredly be smarter then me when he is an adult.
He has a good heart. He loves everyone, no matter their differences. He has a fantastic sense of humor. In fact he has had this since day one, I am sure of it. How many one year olds you know, that get the jokes, the adult jokes in a Looney Tunes cartoon?
I remember a Mother's Day about 3 years ago, maybe 4. He made me a paper airplane. Gave it to me, it was all decorated. He hands it to me and says:
"Happy Mother's Day, Welcome to flight!"
Not sure what it meant exactly, but he had put a great deal of thought into it. When I think about it now, I think he knew his life would be a journey of sorts. Maybe he understood that his life was not going to be one of those easy as can be lives. Maybe he knew that in his life, he was going to have fight to make each a great one. That some days, the sun will not come out. Or maybe it was just a 3 or 4 year old making up a saying, to make his mom laugh.
I can't believe it has been 7 years.
I cannot remember my life without him. It was empty, and not memorable. He has filled my life and heart with love.
I love you baby!
