Just a quick one tonight.
Adam.
I say all to often how big your heart is. Its bigger than your smile and bigger than the hugs to give. Some people don't fully see how precious you are; even people that know you well. I've seen others pick up on it after meeting you just once. You've got something other people don't and its hard to put into words.
I've been dealing with a lot of changes lately; we all have. You continue to reinforce to me what life is truly about. You show me each day that the little things are important, that caring for people and living things matter, and that simple is what works. Its so hard to remember to keep these things in focus.
We spent the night with friends tonight as we do every Sunday now. You treat every other child with respect, all the time. You never take away toys, make fun, or laugh at other kids even when its okay to do so. You look out for them all the time.
Tonight I told you a story before bed about a bear and a bee hive. Afterwards we talked about about 20 mins. Thanks for being you. I am so confident that you won't change as you get older, you're stubborn and what you see is what you get. As you get older people will be lucky to know you.
Anyway, without going into it too much, I needed that talk tonight. Thanks for recharging my batteries. I love you very much.
Dad
