It feels like yesterday that I held this bouncing 8 pounds and 11 ounces baby boy in my arms.  I remember the emotions that ran through me when I saw you and held you the first time.  You were going to be the love of my life.  It was destined that way and while I feared the challenge there has not been a day that went by that I have wavered in my love for you.  The bond we have is like no other and I hope we always keep it. 

 There are so many memories that we have.  There are no memories that make me sad because I know despite everything I gave my all to be your mom and to be here for you whenever you needed me.  I will always be here for you.
I pray that your kind heart follows you through life.  I hope that the mark you wish to make is achieved.  Mostly, I hope that you use what you learned from our family what it is like to know love and continue showing and giving love to others.
I could not be more proud of you.  I love you today, tomorrow, and for always.
To the moon and back, to infinity and beyond... most like toast.
