My son is just 3 years old but I feel compelled to write to him for his birthday.  I’m well aware he cannot read it and if he could, would not understand what I’m trying to convey.  What he does understand is hugging, kissing, playing, running, romping, good food, his Daddy playing with him and the like.  But, I still feel a desire to write to  him and one day, he might just read it on my FB page!

Here is my open letter to my 3 year old son.

Dear Ramey,

Today is your birthday, precious boy! You entered this world and gave me a new outlook on life. My world was transformed in a single moment the day you were born. You truly open my heart wide and fill it with such joy. I learned from you what wild, uncontrollable, unlimited, unconditional, and forever love feels like. You changed everything. You turned me into a mom. Just the sound pleases me. You’re the first one to make me forget myself. You’re the first person I ever said “I love you” to more than 50 times in one day. It was three years ago today at 22:22 you arrived and made life so much fun. Being a mother is a job I’ve loved since you arrived. United, we set off on this learning curve together with you learning about the world and me learning how to be a Mommy. They say “the days are long but the years are short” and at this 3 year old mark, I see that to be true. Ramey, this year alone has been a big one for you. With your going to preschool starting 2 months ago, learning to play ball with your Daddy and the LeapPad introduction, great promise is yours. I can’t believe 3 year ago, I was holding you for the very first time at Baptist South hospital. Though you were a big, 8-pound-6-ounces, in my arms you felt fragile and tiny and the most precious thing I had ever seen. That God in-trusted me with you! It is truly awesome and I’m awestruck! As time has passed I’ve learned so much about you. I couldn’t imagine not having you in my life. I thank the Lord Jesus for giving me this wonderful gift of love.

One day you’ll read my FB timeline and see this letter addressed to you…..Happy birthday Ramey.

Your Mom loves you. (Dad has a few words for you too!)
