Happy Birthday Jay!!!

I can't believe my baby boy is now officially a teenager!!! In some ways it seams like yesterday he was born and in other ways it's like he has always been with us.
Not a great pick as I took a photo of a photo but this is my little boy


AND

This is my big boy with Big Bazza.

Jay turned 13 today and I am just so proud of my boy. He has grown so big and now life is all about his mates and his sport. He still has time for cuddles with his old mum but just in private now!

Jay had a rocky start to life and their were some very scary moments and very sad times when we worried what his life would be like. At times Mb and I would lay in bed talking about his future and agreeing sometimes it hurts so much to love so much. The love you have for your child is often frightening, especially when their health is compromised.
 I am pleased to say he has proved many people wrong and has grown into a very intelligent happy and loving young man.
We are so proud of you Jay and want you to know that you are so loved and we believe in you. Try and try again, never give up and BELIEVE in your self!
I love this exert on children from Kahil Gibrans, The Prophet:

           You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
            For they have their own thoughts.
            You may house their bodies but not their souls,
             For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
             which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.

I hope I'm as good a mother as you are a son. May your life be blessed in every way.
Love Mum xxx
