Yesterday was my son’s birthday.
My amazing, talented, beautiful son is now 24.
But to me, he’ll always be the little dreamer, carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders
But work (because we’re in the middle of a big weekend event) and life (because we’re one continent away) got in the way of celebrating.
How can I even begin to enumerate all the things I wish and hope for him? I don’t think there is enough space in WP for that.
Happy birthday my son! Be all the things you want to be and dream all the dreams you dare to dream.

With a beautiful son and big weekend events, why is your poetry of late so melancholy?
I wish there were an easy answer. Because that would mean there would be an easy fix.
Instead, I’ll leave you with this: http://acanvasoftheminds.com/2013/04/01/the-tragedy-of-mental-illness/
I read the piece. I know there is nothing I can say that will help you for more than a second or two. I’d ask you to dance too, but I’d probably step on your toes. I’m more like a humbug than a jitterbug. I know my daughters have their good days. I hope you do to.
Thank you. I have some good days, yes.
Read the related article. Such a lovely post! :-)
You have some cool kids there SSG!
FYI. My son’s birthday is close to yours … it is his birthday today … errr … tomorrow.
Okay … let’ just call it the 8th April. ;-)
Hehehe well, it is finally today for me as well. Happy birthday to your son!
Happy birthday to the not so little man! (Adorable picture!) I hope you get a chance to celebrate soon.
Thank you! I hope too but I’m afraid the soonest I will see him is next year for his 25th birthday
