Son, I Want You to Know

How Much You Mean to Me

@

Sometimes I can hardly believe that the man I see when I look at you used to be my little boy.
Where did the time go?
How did the moments turn into years that disappeared behind us at such grate speed?

I am in awe at the changes that have taken place in you, and sometimes in saddens me because that part of my life is over.
Yet I also feel happiness and pride in having a son who is all grown up. and nothing can dull or dampen the wonderful memories I have of you as my little boy.
Even the rough times, the trying times, and the overwhelming times have sweetened through the years.
memories of you still bring laughter and delight, a warmness of heart, and tears to my eyes.

The pride I have in you and the love I feel for you have continued to grow, much like you have.
You are even more precious to me now than you were before.
If you could look inside my heart and see the love there, if you could feel its strength and depth, then you would know that you have fulfilled my life in ways no other person ever could.
