The year Darby was born, we had birthday cake for Matthew at our local hospital. He said she was the best birthday present he had ever received.
This year, we’ve celebrated with dinner out, cake and presents at home….
…of course, his cake had to have braces!
To dear son, Matthew,
This last year has been a pleasure for me. I have watched you grow from boy to man, right before my eyes.
I am seeing you become selfless and responsible.
You continue to be a source of strength and comfort for me.
I love you so very much.
I pray this year is a time of continued growth, health, and that the Lord would continue to show you His path for your life. May He lead your words and your steps. May you seek Him in all things.
I am proud of you, my sweet son.
With love,
Mama
