The perfect Son

August 23, 2008 HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY BELOVED SON. THIS CELEBRATION IS FOR YOU, A RECOGNITION OF YOUR LIFE, AND AN APPRECIATION OF YOUR COURAGE, AND LOVE. I KNOW THAT GIVEN A CHOICE, I MAY NOT HAVE BEEN THE IDEAL CHOICE TO BE YOUR MOTHER. I MAY NOT HAVE BEEN FIRST, BUT I TRIED TO SLIP INTO THAT SPOT. YOU, ON THE OTHER HAND, WERE A PERFECT CHOICE FOR MY NUMBER ONE SON. YOU WERE BRIGHT, BEAUTIFUL AND WARM AND FUNNY. YOUR HONESTY, COMBINED WITH GRACE AND INTEGRITY, AND AGILITY FORMED ONE HANDSOME PACKAGE. I HAVE LOVED YOUR EVERY DAY OF YOUR LIFE, AND NOW THAT YOUR JOURNEY HERE HAS ENDED, I LOOK FORWARD TO FEELING YOUR INFLUENCE ON ALL OUR LIVES FOREVER. THANK YOU FOR YOUR STRENGTH, GUIDANCE AND LOVE TO ALL OF US. I LOVE YOU, DAVID. MOM
