Today, on 9/24/2021, it is my honor to wish my AMAZING, college student, a very happy Happy first away from home- birthday!
NINETEEN years ago, when I was a mere 21 years old, I had no idea how FAST the years would fly by. From September 24, 2002 at 4:53 PM, you were my reason to grow up and every day since then, we have grown up together. You were born an old soul with kindness, class and depth far beyond your years and over the last few months, you have moved into your own world for college experiences where I know you have met so many people and I know you will continue to be a steadfast example of character & class.
From your great music taste & your sense of humor, to your constant pursuit for growth and development in whatever you do, you have stepped into the world with grace; while those are all wonderful attributes, it is your kindness (particularly with your brother ♥️), your heart, your character, your ability to think introspectively, your unwavering dependability as a member of our family and society, that make me the most proud! I love that Although you are a few hours away, I can still call you to rattle about my day or you call me to help you make a toga 🧝.
When God made me your mom, he gave me platinum to work with and I remain full of gratitude and in awe of the person you have become. I have always been and ALWAYS will be your number one fan- no matter where you are. I love you from the bottom of my toes to the top of your (very, very tall) head. Your story is just getting started and you are primed for greatness and I KNOW it’s going going to be a SELLOUT hit!
In the words of Sinatra that you sing so well “the best is yet to come”!!!!
♥️ you always!! Happy birthday buddy!
♥️, Mom
