A decade ago today, YOU
made ME a MOTHER.
And you were the best (hardest) and most rewarding Christmas gift I have ever received. My first born son came right before Christmas. And yes, you made the Christmas story more real to me forever.
I can't believe you are 10 years old today! I remember turning 10!
I love your good heart. I love when you are in your AMAZING mood of service and kindness. When you speak to Cooper with gentleness. When you laugh with Madeline. When you help Oliver feel happy. I love hearing you play the piano. I love watching you read. I love when we tease and talk. I love hearing you pray.
You test me to my limits all the time. But I think, in the end, you are helping make me a better person and I do the same for you. Never stop being teachable. You crazy smart child of mine. There is no end to the learning that can be yours. Especially as you stay close to the Spirit like you do. I'm so proud of you and who you are becoming.
I love you. Forever. Happy Birthday my dearest Ethan.
