Today has been a challenging day. Have felt very out of sorts – and close to tears – for many, many reasons.

Perhaps my psyche is aware of the birth of my oldest son Matt 26 years ago today. How I love being his mom! I’m deeply blessed to have had the privilege of nurturing his beautiful spirit!

Here’s a picture of us in 1988 – Matt is 7 and is on the right, Ryan is a little over two.

Up until about 4 years ago, he and I were pretty close. In fact, all through high school he was very open to sharing things with me – unlike most teens.

And even though we don’t share like we use to – he knows I’m behind him with every fiber of my being! No one could ever be prouder of a son than I am!

Here’s a photo of us taken in June 2006 at Ryan’s graduation. Whew…. how they both have grown!

My deepest prayer my beloved Matt, is that Love surrounds your beautiful soul – and you grow in spiritual wisdom and depth with each passing year!

Love you always,
Mom
