Dear Jayden,
It’s me, your number one fan. I have been since the day I found out I was having you, I knew there was nothing I wanted more than you. To see you grow, to see you flourish, to see you become the man God has destined you to be. I could only imagine when you were growing inside me, what you would look like, what your personality would be, and know that you are here you are more than I could have ever imagined. Is it so wrong for me to think you are the most perfect little being that God has ever created? I am so amazed by you, each and every day. I stare at you while you sleep and I thank God everyday for giving me such a blessing. You are my little angel in disguised, my saving grace. I owe so much of me and who I am now to you. I never knew I could be this strong, love so much, and be who I am today without you.
I look at you and see endless possibilities. You are the best of both worlds from me and your dad. You are handsome like your daddy. I know you will have girls’ heart swooning like you have mine with that dimpled smile. You are funny. I don’t go a day, an hour, a minute without laughing at your antics. You have your father’s humor and that’s why I will forever be a sucker for you. You are amazingly athletic. Is there a sport you are not good at? I’ve never seen a kid run faster, hit the ball harder, throw with such accuracy, and most of all have so much passion for the game. I don’t doubt it one bit you will be able to go to any college including Ivy League on an athletic scholarship, because not only are you gifted athletically but you have the brains too. Me and your dad are pretty smart, and I consider myself very smart, but you my dear are far smarter than us combined. You know your alphabet, your numbers in English and Spanish, to read books, and now you are speaking full sentences. And you are only two! You also love to build cranes and bridges for your trains, and you can spot them a mile away anytime we are on the road.
But above all the good looks, the athletics, and the smarts, what I love most about you is your heart. Your heart is so pure of love it makes me melt. Every time you say “I love you,” I die of happiness. Your sweet little kisses give me all the strength in the world, and reassurance than I must be doing something right to deserve such sweet kisses from such a perfect little human.
Can you understand why I am so infatuated with you? Why I think you are so amazing. It’s because you are. You are amazing. You are the best thing in this world. And as your number one fan I will be there to make sure you grow up to be happy, to be loved, to become the man God has destined you to be. I will push myself harder than I have ever pushed myself to make sure you have the best life. I will be there at every game, for every practice, for every win, for every loss, I will be there. I will be there when you need someone to talk to. I will be there when you reach the lowest point of your life, and the highest point of your life. I will be there even when I have left this earth, I will always be there. Because a mother’s love goes beyond life itself, it will live on in your heart. I hope it gives you strength when you need it, comfort when you are alone, and hope when you feel as you have nothing. I will give everything and anything for you, because I am your number one fan.
Love, Mom <3
