The man I am today...

Christmas 2013 was one of the best ever for me for many reasons, but 2 stand out in a way that makes my heart smile...

1. I surprised my 15 year old son giving him plane tickets for a trip to see his dad for the holidays. Card to let him know we were flying up to Maryland to visit his dad the day after Christmas - $3.99.  The Cost of plane tickets - couple hundred bucks.   To see my son completely overcome with excitement and happiness - priceless!

2. My son's Christmas card to me I opened on Christmas day read:
"Thank you Mom for everything you've done for me to make me the MAN I am today and here's a picture frame with a few pics so it will look like I never grew up and I'm still your baby. (he drew a heart) Ty"

Yes, I cried reading it ... Yes, he is 15 and is that sentimental (he does not get embarrassed hugging me & me kissing him like in the pic below)...Yes, I am one lucky mom!



 This is one of the pics he had with the card. :) :) :)
