Thank you for my beautiful son.
- His gorgeous, expressive eyes and his radiant smile.
- His sunny, sweet disposition.
- His desire to play with me (that has grown exponentially from disinterest at age 2).
- His babbling that has replaced his silence (in the past year)!
- His insistence that his mom will understand him when no one else can (and his patience with my frequent delay in that understanding).
- His willingness to repeat things until he gets them right.
- His diligence in the completion of his 37 hour work week (plus commuting)!
- His sudden ability to sleep through the night (after 6 years? this should be number 1)!
- His about-face decision to try different foods.
- His innate and unquestioning ability to live in two places.
- His love of music and speed.
- His love of the outdoors and sports (that has changed my life).
- His unintentional and unconscious participation in helping me recover from my stroke and enabling me to ask for help.
- His patient, sweet, lovable, and infinitely enjoyable dad (who is mighty fine looking, to boot).
