New adventures are in store. The years we had were just the beginning. I am very proud to be his mom. There were some pretty tough times where I wanted to quit. But, he is my life, my reason to live. My heart, to him, I will always give. I bought this wood plaque as a token to remember, that together, we both made it through the first 18 years. I look forward to what is in store. I cross my fingers, may his future plans soar. I don't know where I'd be today, had we not been given the chance for both of us to live, 18 years ago. I will never make him feel regret, because he is young, and still has a full future to seek out yet.
