Christian
Dear Christian,
You are the neatest thing that has ever come into my life. Most of the time when I look at your face I'm reminded of the Madonna song "Little Star," particularly the line where she says "you've breathed new life into my broken heart."
You were born in the year of the dragon, and that makes you a very, very special and lucky child. You're the first boy in the family, and everyone is so envious of that.
I am very, very guilty of babying you, and I'm sorry. I also know that I spoil you, and this is probably a bad thing. But, I cannot help it. I can't help moving you into my bed late at night so I can fall asleep with my nose in your cheek. Something funny, when you wake up, your breath never stinks. How that's possible, I don't know.
Some day you will fall in love with a woman and I hope that you treat her like a princess. Keep your nose clean, get good grades, make me even prouder than you have. And don't be so hard on your sister. She gets jealous that you get so much attention from everyone. She doesn't really hate you.
I know you wonder why me and your father didn't stay together. We didn't get along, Chris, and, well...I'm happier alone. I promise you that you will always feel safe and warm in my household. No outside influences or situations will change the way I feel about you. My job is to raise you to be a strong, polite, useful citizen and I intend on fulfilling that job.
I love you...I LOVE YOU!!
Love,
Mom

Aw, what a beautiful baby boy! I know he's not technically a baby, but they
are still babies to me at that age.
That's a sweet face he's got there, Jess.
You sound like a good mom, although yep, that sleeping together thing is
probably going to need to stop eventually lol.:)
I would so love to have kids, I hope it happens for me.
Take care, Sweetie.
Dear Jess,
Now that I've read this one, I'm more proud than ever that you called me "America's Mom," 'cause clearly, honey, you get it. I mean, you know what your number one job and priority in the world is: to be your kids' mom! and to do it in the unique way that only you can do it, because more than anything in the world they need us to be there for them.
My son turned 16 today. I am so proud of him, and I love him more than words could ever show, and I love it that you have a son too! He's beautiful.
Big hugs,
you great mom, you!

Lisa,
I only let him sleep with me when he has a nightmare or something. There's no way I'm allowing kids in my bed every night! ;)
Heheheh, I'm glad to hear that, lol.
Wasn't sure, but I've seen a lot of talk shows on that subject, lol.
Eeeew, that reminds me! Yuck! Have you seen those women that are still breastfeeding their kids when they are like, 5? I think I saw that on Phil
Donahue a million years ago. :)
Ewww! YES! Don't let the breastfeeding Nazis hear you say that! If I saw a TODDLER hanging on to his mom's tit I'd probably barf. Ween, for God's sake!
Aww, Jessica, that seriously made me teary eyed. You sound like a wonderful mom, and I bet Chris is going to grow up to be a great man.

Claire, how sweet!
Save this letter ... I bet he will be really touched when he is all grown up and out on his own (maybe with a kid or three of his own) and sees what his mother wrote to him when he was too small to really understand just how lucky he is to have such a great mom.
That's a very beautiful letter to
your son,Jessica.Chris is adorably
handsome.Notice how I combine
adorable and handsome?Most guys
don't like to be called "adorable",
that want to be "handsome".In my
opinion,being adorable and handsome
is a nice combo.What the heck am
I babbling about?LOL!! Hey, my
girlfriend's name is Jessica!
Lovely people those Jessica's :)
