twenty-two

Florida 1990

Happy Birthday to my youngest son, the one most like me and the child of my heart. I remember the exact moment when I knew we needed one more child to complete our family circle. It is a joy to watch him become independent and find his way but I do miss the days when he counted on me for everything and I always knew where he was. I tried to prepare him for the world and then had such a hard time sending him off. This has been the hardest one to let go - my fourth and my baby. Now he is out there in the world - I pray for him to have a joyfull life. I hope he knows how much he is loved.
