Dear Bubby,
The last two years have been incredibly special. I was extremely excited to be a mom, but no one warned me that I would have a son who is so sweet, so bright, and so loving. I had no idea that I would be so privileged to be the mother of such a perfect little boy. Every day, you change my life. I didn't know that I could love another human so instantly and so unconditionally until the moment I met you and held you. No one told me that being a mommy would make my heart grow 100 sizes! I may not have been totally prepared for motherhood, but you have made me feel that it is the best job in the whole world.
I want you to know that I will always love you. No matter what you do, where you go, nothing can change my love for you. You are literally a part of me! I will never forget how feeling you inside of me made my heart warm, nor can I ever forget how I felt when the doctor placed you on my chest as you were born.
I hope and pray that Daddy and I can provide you with a happy, safe, nurturing childhood and adolescence. I hope that no matter what is going on in your life that you can always come to us with your thoughts, fears, hopes, dreams, worries, and mistakes. I hope that you don't forget you are special and wanted and needed on this earth at this time. And lastly, I hope you remember that although Daddy and I love you more than we can describe, Heavenly Father and Jesus love you even more than we do- because you were their son before you were ours.
I love you. I am already so proud to be your mother, to be able to call you MY son. I pray that we can keep our hearts close to one another as you grow up.
Love,
Mommy
