Look at him...He is so little in this picture. This was Christmas 2004!!! I was going through our old pictures and found his pictures from 2 years ago, that was a rinky-dink Christmas, this one will be much better. He knows the real meaning of Christmas a little better now - he realizes it is not just about presents. Well...the presents are always a bonus though...lol...
I was thinking about past years while going through those pictures and realized how much my son has grown; emotionally, mentally, spiritually and physically. I always wonder if I do right for him. When I see the look on his face at the happiest times of his life, the answer is clear. There is always doubt in the mind of a single mother, but it disappears when you see you child grow and florish the way he has.
He has been invited to a party at his school tomarrow for "AR Testing-High Scorers". I told him how proud of him I was, and meant every word. You see, AR Testing are tests they give the children in schools to see where they are academically. He scored in the top 90% of 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade. I am not hear to brag on my son, but what the heck - why not. He is 7!!! He scored higher than some 8 and 9 year olds. Why not brag??? Why not scream and cheer and yell out loud??? So, I realized after I told him how proud I was that we needed to scream and cheer and yell out loud...so that is exactly what we did...
Don't let a day go by that you don't tell your kids you love them, I know I don't. And I see the results each and everyday...
