It is hard to believe that 19 years ago today I was on my way to the hospital to deliver Justin. The time has flown by. I remember the day I found out I was pregnant. 17 and scared. My parents, even though they were disappointed in me, loved me anyway. In fact they loved my husband to be as well and allowed us to live with them. I have the greatest parents in the whole world. I don't know what I would have done without them helping me during that time of my life.
Here we are 19 years later, my little baby boy has grown into a wonderful young man. He is gorgeous on the inside and gorgeous on the outside. He has been through alot in his 19 years but has shown great strength through it all. He could have chosen different roads enlight of his circumstances, but he didn't. He has taken the right path. I am very proud of the man he is becoming.
I am hoping that as the teenage years come to an end this year, I'll get him back. Those of you with teenagers know what I am referring to! He will want to spend time with me! He won't think I am stupid anymore! He will want to sit down and eat dinner with us! He won't roll his eyes! Oh well, I can dream can't I? Lol. Gotta love the teenagers. So full of emotion. The teenage years are a roller coaster. One almost down and 4 more to go!
Happy Birthday Justin. I thank God that even though you came into my life at a time that was not normal for most, it was perfect for me. I am honored that God chose me to be your mother. We have had our ups and downs but one thing has stayed the same... I have loved you always and will continue to love you no matter what. Have a wonderful day and I wish you Peace, Love and Happiness for this New Year.
Love,
Maureen aka Mommy
