The Inscription

25 Years of Greatness

Today is my son Blake's 25th birthday. When he was born, my life changed.

Most people's lives change when they have a child. It brings new schedules, a lack of sleep, and suddenly a baby decides the size of the vehicle you drive and your answer at the hostess stand of every restaurant. Those changes came for me too, along with a new perspective and new priorities. The people in my life, the ambitions in my heart, and the grace I had been given were all new.

Being a young, single mom just after 9/11 was a sobering thing to face. But Grace given and the tenacity I always had proved to be a powerful combo. There's more to my story that I'll share another day, but today is all about Blake.

When I think of Blake, so many words come to mind. He is my considerate, responsible, down-to-earth, content, funny, incredible son.

Happy 25th birthday, my precious son. You are a true gift!

Who is the person that changed your life just by arriving in it? Email me and tell me about them. I'd love to hear.
