Bibbers


When you were born I was so happy and excited to have you. You were our first baby. Even though I had some experience with babies you were all mine and I couldn't give you back to someone else if you started to cry. I had just graduated High School and I was so young. I was so unsure of what life was going to bring.

You were the perfect baby a first time mom could have. You hardly ever fussed. You were laid back and happy. Then came the toddler years and I knew the calm was over. You were very busy. Always exploring and getting into things. I remember when you stuck your finger in the light socket 3 times before you figured out it was a good idea. I learned then that no matter how many time I told you NO! I had to let you figure it out all on your own.

I know things have not always been easy for you. You have been through more things than a kid should at your age. I want you to know that I will always be here when you need a helping hand or someone to talk to.

The happiest moment for me was when you gave your heart to God. That is when I knew that I had done a great job with you. You are such a fine man. You have a great heart,a kind spirit,you are a loyal friend to many.

I pray that you will follow the Lord always and you grow into a fine young man.

Happy 11th Birthday mysweet boy!
