We love you so much, sweet boy, forever and ever.
I woke up remembering when he was 3 years old, and used to say to me, "Am I a sweet boy, Mommy?" His face was so earnest. It touched my heart that he wanted to be seen thus, by me, and I told him, "You are the sweetest boy, my love." And he was, and is.
I think that the best thing in my whole good life has been my children and my interactions with them. I hear you. And, yes, he is. Not to mention (have I mentioned?) drop-dead gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI took Lovely One to my book club. They were enthralled. I did explain to them, without giving any data about who you are, that I had followed the building of this excellent biography. That also was of great interest. So, thank you, from me and from my book buddies. It has been a great journey.
ReplyDeleteI could not help making a bit of a comparison with Michelle Obama's autobiograpy. I hope that was fair. But it did seem to me that there were similar themes. One of which is that cream rises to the top and whines of tokenism are just that.
What a joy to celebrate your son's birthday today! Growing sweeter each year.
ReplyDeleteYou and he are both blessed.
