Tomorrow is a big day. My son turns 27 years old. I can’t believe how fast the time goes. I so remember his cute little smile and the mischievous glint in his eyes. He has grown to be such a wonderful son and man. I am so proud of how he is handing his life.
Life threw him a curve ball but through it all he is still plodding along. I thought he had found the love of his life, he seemed so happy and I felt settled inside. Nothing better for a parent than to see their child happy. But as life so often happens, the dream turned sour and he was left to pick up the pieces of his heart. That hurt me more than I could ever have thought. You never want your child to be unhappy, much less have their heart broken. Through it all I watch him put on a brave face and keep going with his life. Yes his dreams have changed but still he is working hard at getting what he wants out of life.
Son I love you so much, and this day just brings back the memories of one of the happiest days of my life. May you follow your dreams and may your path be smoother than the first 27 years of your life.
Mom
