Another year adds to your age dear Son, you are unique and sincere, and there is nothing anyone could possibly do to change that. May you always know your worth and how incredibly precious you are. Always remember that Dad and Mom knew you well. No one can put you down because you are a good man.
Now you are older, and what an amazing person you’ve become. You have your own personality, your own thoughts and opinions, and your own sense of humor. You have your own interests, your own talents, and your own way of doing things. I celebrate your individuality and uniqueness and am so honored to be part of your life.
Be true to yourself always. There is no one else like you, so allow your uniqueness to shine through. You never need to change who you are for someone else. You are magnificent exactly as you are.
Live your own dreams. Figure out what makes you happy and pursue it. Follow a path of your own choosing not mine, not your dad’s, or anyone else’s. Your fulfillment is what I want, and it will come from following your dreams and living a life that has meaning and purpose for you.
Don’t be afraid to take risks. Take big, bold risks. You can accomplish great things by taking risks. Living life too cautiously and keeping the status quo will leave you with regrets. Get outside of your comfort zone and watch as that comfort zone expands. The more risks you take, the easier it becomes.
Love and accept yourself unconditionally. You will always have yourself even when friends come and go, so make it your best relationship. The way you treat yourself will show others how to treat you, so treat yourself like you would your own best friend. Be kind, respectful, and loving to yourself no matter what.
Know that we love you and we will always be there for you. No matter what, we’ve got your back. You are our victorious son and always will be. Love you as always, Daddy and Mommy.
