To my JP on your 5th Birthday:
Five years ago today you made me a momma! If I close my eyes hard enough I can almost hear the doctor exclaim, "It's a BOY!"; I can almost smell your sweet baby skin; I can almost feel your tiny head burrow into my chest as you take a nap. But when I open them, I see a boy. A real live big kid boy. With hair as white as the winter snow and eyes that still sparkle with blue. An engineer mind and a playful heart. Your personality dazzles with innocence, compassion, persistence, and creativity. You ask the most delicate questions and the way you take on your role as the Big Brother just melts my heart each day.
You are now FIVE years old. May you continue to be a tiny light in this world.
And as I sing to you each night: May the Blessings of the Lord be upon You. I bless you in the name of the Lord.
Love,
Mommy
