Truth is that you have grown faster than I could have ever imagined. You stand before me a young man full of life and dreams. Your silly sayings literally bring me to laughing tears. You are joy. I am amazed by your caring spirit. I watch you when you are least expecting it. Those are the exact moments that I tuck away in my memory. We are a few hours shy of your actual birth. I am thinking back to those last moments before you entered the world. We were so ready for you, our son. I have no idea what your future holds. I hope your continue to dream big and follow Christ. Our wish is to always find you running hard in the direction that he leads. I am so proud of you. Really, I am. I love you. I always will. Forever.
