To the little boy who changed my world forever.
Dear Son,
Happy 5th Birthday, my love.
It feels like just yesterday I held you in my arms for the very first time, your tiny hands, your soft breath, your beautiful eyes that looked right into my soul. And now, here you are… five years old. A big boy. A kind-hearted, curious, funny, and smart little human I’m so proud of.
Watching You Grow
You’ve grown so much this past year, not just in height and energy (which you have a lot of!) but also in your heart. I see how you care for others, how you always ask questions, how you notice things that most people miss.
You’ve started writing, drawing, telling stories, and showing your unique personality. You’ve taught me to see the world through your eyes, full of wonder, silliness, and surprises.
The Little Things I Never Want to Forget
-
Your laughter when we play chase around the house
-
How you say “I love you, Mommy” out of nowhere
-
Your love for airplanes, cars, and that one cartoon you can’t stop watching
-
The way you reach out to hold my hand when you’re unsure
These little moments? They are the biggest gifts in my life.
My Promise to You
I may not be a perfect mom, but I promise to always love you with everything I have.
I promise to protect you, guide you, and also give you space to grow into who you’re meant to be.
There will be days I’ll be tired or busy with work, but please know that you are always in my heart every second, every breath.
You are not just my son.
You are my teacher, my inspiration, and the reason I keep becoming better.
Keep Being You
As you turn five, here’s what I want you to know:
-
It’s okay to be sensitive. That’s part of your strength.
-
It’s okay to ask questions. You’re learning every day.
-
You are brave, even when you feel scared.
-
You are so very loved, not just today, but always.
Happy Birthday, My Son
Thank you for every hug, every tantrum, every bedtime story, and every giggle.
You’ve changed my life in the most beautiful way.
I love you, forever and always.
Love,
Mommy 💕
