19 Years ago on this Very Special Day

Happy 19th Birthday!

So many thoughts and memories pass before me back to the day you were born. As I reach out to grasp those years I still see them there...just below the surface of this fine young man you’ve become and I am instantly once again cradling my tiny infant son. As our second born child, you quickly made your special mark in the family with your energetic and happy personality. You only need to smile at me a certain way or make some humorous remark and I melt with pride. You’re so bright and talented with a now quiet reserve-that is until you’re playing your favorite music! We want you to soar and follow your dreams and experience life to its fullest because you deserve this and so much more. We love you so very, very much!

Valentines Gift

On Valentines Day 21 years ago my first born son Adam came into our lives and we became a family. What a special day that was and what an amazingly joyful experience becoming a mother and parent. You were such a little man and so serious some would say but you surprised everyone with your big smiles and your zest for life. You fill our hearts with so much love and joy. An older brother to Alex, you looked out for him and were buddies (when you weren't pinching him) and have loved a good game of hockey from the very first time you put on a pair of ice skates. We've felt such great pride in watching you become a man and know that whatever you put your mind to you will succeed. May your dreams be the path to your happiness, we love you so very, very, much!
