To Vincenzo...

The first time I heard your voice,

Uncertainty suddenly filled my heart.

Am I really your mother?

The softness of your cries have turned into excitement of going outside.

Your tiny seven pounds have turned into a healthy toddler body.

Watching you grow has been a privilege that I am grateful for eternity.

Your love is so raw; a feeling you’re expressing in the newest way everyday.

I get the best therapy from your happiness.

The spark in your eyes when you’re truly interested in something…

That’s the hope I continue to thrive for.

You’re the inspiration and motivation I search for when I’m lost.

I’m found at the the thought of you and my spirit is uplifted.

Who knew a piece of me could have this much vital substance..?

The greatest quality I could ever receive.

My love, you are magnificent!

Let no one ever steal your joy.

And remember,

I will always love you.

My son.

❤️
