I'm not sure why you were born into some cruel reality, but this I know...
you were born to be MY son.
I'm not sure why your first hours on earth were spent cold, alone, swaddled in a sheet, in the snow, in the woods, waiting to be found, but this I know...
I will never let you be cold, alone or in need of rescue again.
I'm not sure why a police station was one of your first destinations in life, but this I know....
you will have many adventures and destinations to come with your family who loves you.
I'm not sure why you had to spend 2 years and 11 months without a mommy and daddy to call your own, but this I know....
God placed Joyce and Robin, and Steven and Marybeth and so many others to act on our behalf while you waited for us.
I'm not sure why you can't speak as much as you and I would like, but this I know....
you can tell me what is in your heart with a look and a touch.
I'm not sure what you see at times when you look at the world, but this I know...
I would give a million dollars to see life through your eyes for just one day.
I'm not sure how a mamma can love a boy so much that my heart wants to burst open, but this I know...
I love you more and more and more every day!
Happy ninth birthday my dear boy, I love you with every breath that I take!
