today is my son's 21st birthday.
i was 21 when he was born
which means that i have been david's mom
for half of my life...
the best half,
without a doubt!
i wanted to write something
really poignant about the passing of time,
a mother's perspective,
and all that other good stuff.
but the truth is,
it's impossible
to put into words
all the things
i'm feeling today...
proud,
sentimental,
excited,
and emotional
are a few of them.
mostly,
i'm just feeling
a whole lot of love
for this son of mine
who has been
the best part of everything
the past twenty-one years.
i love you, david.
here we are on david's first birthday...
and here we are
last night,
just a little after midnight,
on his 21st birthday.
(hoping we get a better picture at dinner tonight)
here are a few of my favorite blog posts
about being david's mom
