A Love Letter To My Son

5 months pregnant with my son

Two years ago this very month, I was anxiously awaiting the arrival of my son…with a c-section scheduled for the big day, I was nervous, excited, anxious…you name it, I felt every emotion imaginable. Then finally on December 30th at 1:15p weighing in at 7lbs, 6 ounces I came face to face with my precious angel….

Dear Lil B….

I could never imagine life without you. I would dream of you for so long. All my life I felt like I was chasing for something or someone.  I keep on filling that void with mindless, empty things.  Not knowing that the one thing around me had already represented you. Your dad. It took me 36 years to find you. But only after I stopped running you came along. You’ve helped me become a better person, a person that I never thought I could be.  You’ve given me the greatest gift I can ever know. The gift of motherhood.

    Beautiful! Children need to hear and know how special they really are. They need things like this to fuel who they are and who they will/can become. So many times we can easily say the not-so nice things, but find difficulty in expressing our LOVE! Beautifully done!

    Congratulations on being a mommy for two years!! My sweet December baby will be 13 in 15 minutes! The time goes by so quickly! It is amazing what one little baby can do to a life that you thought was full and happy and then you have this child and your whole life comes in to focus. Thanks for a lovely post, you made me cry!
