This is our only Son, Alex! OUR boy has my heart. From the day he came into this world I melted. He was my first introduction to Motherhood....Oh, have I made mistakes and I wish I could raise him perfectly. Taking back any form of hurt or pain. He is so smart, funny, and lovable. He says he won't get married, but one day I think he will. He is going to make a great husband! He doesn't want kids either...LOL! I pray that any doubt, childhood wounds, or guilt will be healed and replaced by God's amazing goodness and grace. As the movie Jerry McGuire says, "He had me at, Hello!" I don't recommend that movie by the way...but it is a great example of how I felt.
Ana wanted me to tell her about how each of the children were born tonight. I have a passion for being a Mommy, one that gets me worked up every time I start talking about it. Tonight, I remembered that the nurses in the delivery room called my son "The Gentle Giant." That is exactly what he is. When he was a little tike there was a sign on his bedroom wall that read 100% Boy! There is no doubting that once you meet this child. Tonight, I went in to tuck him into bed...I still get to do that! Whew! He smelled like a little man! So good! He is a true cowboy at heart with a love for fishing and tinkering. He is a true blessing, my first born All American Boy has a hold of his Mama's heart! I love you Alex ~ Mom
I will treasure this picture forever and hope to have it at his graduation ;-)
