What I want for you...

This is a letter to my son but I am posting it here to give you permission to hold me accountable to this. Many know that our little family went through a tragic season last year. I wrote this May 27, 2016.

My Dearest son,
What I want for you is a life full of God's protection, love, mercy and grace. I want you to know who and who's you are from day 1 to your last. I love you my son and I promise to teach you the most important name you will ever need to know. Even if all you will be able to mutter at times is "Jesus" I want you to be able to comfortably approach his throne no matter what. Life sure looks a lot different now.

Watching you play in the bath tonight was so touching you are a happy boy! We got through a very hard season as a family and when more tough seasons come we'll still get through them as a family. We love you sweet baby boy! No matter what you'll always have my heart.

Before you were born a man told me "I can do boys" I always thought I would be more of a "mommy's girl" kind of mom. Then I saw you in a vision and I knew that I couldn't wait for my "mamas boy!" You are everything God showed me in that vision. The undeniable joy and blessing you bring into our lives is evident. Stay the charming and sweet boy you are baby! I will and have been praying for you as much as I can. Days go by where I don't get to praying (working on getting better at this) but not one will ever pass that you are not in my thoughts and heart.

I love you baby blue eyes

Your forever grateful mama
