I don’t know how to put everything I feel and want for you
into words, but here goes….

You have such a gift in that you are amazingly tender and
loving, but also very much have a mind of your own and are SO smart. Your hugs
and excitement to see me make my day, and even though you sometimes throw
unnecessary fits…I understand that’s just because you’re two, and I try to just
love on you more. I am confident that you will grow into a boy and man that
will be strong and know his own mind, but who will also have sincere and
beautiful compassion for those who need it.
I love guessing what you will be when you grow up. Yes, I
know that you are planning on being a super hero, but I could also see you
being so many things. I definitely think you will be athletically gifted like
your daddy and maybe be a basketball player like him, or will it be baseball?
It’s also very clear at this young age that you have some musical talent, and I
can’t wait to see you blossom in that way as well. Will you be a scholar? Will
you be a writer? Will you be a music star? Or maybe a doctor or legislator or
speaker that helps thousands of people? Only God knows what your path will be,
and my prayer for you is that you listen to Him, and follow the path He lays
out for you. You are so gifted in so many ways, and I just want you to know how
much I love you and that I will always be here for you…to encourage and love
you, pick you up when you need me to, and watch you grow. I promise to do my
best to give you the space you need to become your own person and to help you
only when you need it.

You are such a light in not only my life, but the lives of our whole family, and for now, I promise to let you be little…
Love
~Mommy
P.s. I think you would make a fantastic super hero!
