Happy 13th Birthday NATHAN

Dear Nathan~
13 years ago I gave birth to a 10 pound beautiful baby boy...and that was YOU! I fell in love with you even before I saw your gorgeous blue eyes and thick head of brown hair! You were perfect with all of your fingers and toes and are the most magnificent addition to our family. I could not imagine our lives without YOU...you make us a whole family and I adore you!
You have turned into a compassionate and tender boy. You are everyone's friend and always help the underdogs. You are very athletic and competed once again in All-Star baseball and hit 3 homeruns this year. All of your teachers tell me you are the "ideal" student and you got excellent grades in your first year of middle school. Your Daddy and I are so proud of you and are excited to see what the next year brings for you!
With all my LOVE,
Mom

Kyle GRADUATED!!! Part 1

Dear Kyle~
I cannot believe you graduated from High School today! My heart was so full of love and pride I thought it would burst!! Becoming a Mommy has always been my lifelong dream and you have made my "job" a complete JOY!! I am proud of the man you've become and the relationship that we have, I feel like you are one of my best friends, yet we have such mutual respect for each other. It seems like the past 18 years have flown by, and we have been able to spend so much time together. I am excited to see what the next chapter holds for you. You are such a kind, charismatic, compassionate person that I know life will give you many rewards. Thank you for being such a HUGE blessing in my life. I love you more than you'll ever know and ALWAYS will! Remember to just "be Kyle Groff" and you will be successful. Take the road less traveled and enjoy yourself. I love you and cherish you with my whole heart!
Love,
Mama
