On your 7th birthday

Last night we snuggled before you drifted off to sleep and I was thankful for the complete darkness that surrounded us. As I softly played with your blond curls, warm tears ran down my cheeks.

You see... I won't be laying next to another 6 year old boy again. This morning marked your 7th birthday.
7 Years ago we welcomed you into this world.
7 years ago I became a mom to two little boys.
7 years ago you became the baby and your brother the eldest.

You.

I wouldn't change anything about you. You keep us on our toes. You are passionate about everything. Your imagination matches your wild locks of hair. You have a tender heart for those suffering. Your snuggles are never ending. Right now you want to live with me forever. You, me, B and your wife. It'll be pretty cool I think. You say you want me to join you in college. We'll be roomies. You want us to skydive on your 18th birthday. You love baseball. You are still super shy when you are around new people.

You.

I wouldn't change anything about you.

Happy birthday my sweet Monkey boy. Love, Momma
