My Beautiful Child


My Beautiful Child

When you were born, you never came with instructions.

I know I have made some mistakes along the way and for those I am sorry. I am far from being the perfect parent, but I have always done the best I could. The mistakes came from a lack of understanding, not a lack of love because from the moment you were born into my life, I knew I would love you with all I am.

On the day you were born I looked into your eyes and all of my dreams came true. I love you more than you will ever know, now and for all eternity.

This is one of the most heartfelt I have read...almost as if it was the very day I had my children all over again...yet with years of looking back all in one.. now that they are adult children...thank you so much for this beautiful saying...

This brought tears to my eyes cause I remember the first time I held my son like it was yesterday and I look back over the years and it makes me sad that he is growing up but I'm happy that he is healthy

HOW DID WHOEVER MADE THIS CARD KNOW HOW I FEEL AND FEEL MORE AND MORE LOVE FOR MY FIRST BORN EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE. I WILL TAKE MY LAST BREATH LOVING HIM AND IF HE IS THERE WHEN I TAKE MY LAST BREATH, IF I CAN'T TALK BUT I AM AWARE OF WHO IS THERE I HOPE MY SON CAN SEE THE LOVE IN MY EYES THAT I HAVE FOR HIM. IF HE ONLY SEES TEARS IT WILL BE JUST HOW MUCH I LOVE HIM. DON'T FEEL GUILTY OR ANY REMORSE BECAUSE YOU HAVE YOUR OWN FAMILY , AND I UNDERSTAND WHY I CAN'T BE A PART OF YOUR FAMILY. I MISS YOU SO MUCH AND I LOVE YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART AND SOUL AND THAT'S SOMETHING NO ONE CAN TAKE A WAY FROM ME. NO ONE PERSON SHOULD MAKE A SON CHOOSE BETWEEN THEM OR THEIR MOTHER. HE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN IF IT WASN'T FOR ME. SON IF YOU EVER CAN GET A CHANCE TO CALL ME , PLEASE DO . I MISS YOU SO MUCH AND I KNOW THAT YOU LOVE ME AND NO ONE SHOULD MAKE YOU CUT OFF ALL YOUR FAMILY, YOUR SISTER AND BROTHER TOO. THEY MISS YOU AND NEED TO KNOW YOU FEEL THE SAME.
TO MY FIRST BORN, ON JANUARY 25, 1962 AT 7:21 PM
YOU ARE THE ONE THAT MADE ME BECOME A RESPONSIBLE PERSON. BECAUSE I WAS JUST 16 YEARS OLD WHEN YOU WERE BORN.

I lost my only child, my precious baby girl. she was 21 year old when she past away in a car accident on 9-14-12 ASHLEY , YOU MADE ME A PROUD MOTHER AND I WILL FOR EVER CHERISH THE 21 YEARS WE SHARED TOGETHER.

Unfortunately, a child must become a parent to fully understand the depth of the eternal love their parent provides.

Breaks my heart to see all of those who have lost a child. I have a daughter who does not speak and calls someone else her parent. She now has a child, my first grand child whom we've never held, kissed or hugged. It seems so senseless...... we have loved her from the moment we knew we were pregnant. I love you with all my heart Melissa Candi (Best) George and will until my last breath.
