For my son Damian

To my sweet, handsome son you're truly amazing. I thank God for blessing me with a son as good as you. I'm so glad that I have never had any problems with you and I pray that I don't ever have to deal with anything major because YOU ALREADY KNOW, LOL!……..I remember when you were first born and I held you in my arms, it seems like just yesterday. I would lie in bed next to you and couldn't ever get enough of watching you sleep. When you first started kindergarten, dad & I walked you in; it just broke my heart to leave you as I walked out with tears in my eyes. I felt the exact same way as I dropped you off, on your first day of highschool. You're growing so fast, right before our eyes and I still can't seem to "let go". I don't think that I will ever be able to. I wish I could protect you and your baby sister and brother from what's out there in the world. All I can do is give you advice and pray that when certain circumstances cross your path, that you will make the right decisions. Dad & I are very proud of you and your individuality. Do your best to reject thoughts if limitations and failure in your mind, and replace them with positive uplifting thoughts. I have always told you, there's not anything you cannot do. You can do ANYTHING your heart desires. Don't let anyone tell you any different. You've always been very obedient and appreciative that's why I never have a problem spoiling you with the things that you want. All I want from you is to continue to apply yourself in school and excel overall. Don't ever allow discouragement, hard times, or obstacles to cause you to want to quit or give up. I admire you for playing football these last two seasons even though you had never played. That takes a lot of courage ;) Dad & I will ALWAYS be your biggest fans. I want you to know that I appreciate all your help with your baby brother and your help around the house. I love you Mi Corazoncito Mas Lindo De Mi Vida……..
