choices for my child

If there is one constant in my life - it's my little man :).  I have never loved anything more than I love being a mommy.  He is seriously the most amazing thing that I have ever done.  Watching him grow and change is both amazing and saddening because with each milestone, I know that he is growing up little by little.

He is so funny, and he can be so sweet.  Every day he tells me that he loves me, and it always on his own, and it's so sincere.  It melts my heart every single time.  He also tells me that I am beautiful every day. And in those two things comes the security that I am doing something right.  While I know there are always things that I could do better, or differently... I think we are pretty good on this one.

There are so few things in life that are guaranteed, and this is just a win for me in my heart.  I cannot always be there with him to help him choose the right path, but to watch him grow with love for all people and without prejudice in his heart makes me so proud.  He has a special needs child in his class and he treats him no differently than anyone else in his class.  His favorite teacher is from Sri Lanka, and he has friends from several cultures in his class.

It's important to me that he is open minded, kind and honest... and I think that he has a pretty awesome start.  The world is so diverse in people and life choices, disabilities, and experiences... I love that at four, my son see the world with the same eyes that I see it with.  He just doesn't care about what people look like, he just cares if they are nice to him.  That is all I can hope for. <3 p="p">
