I’ll whisper to you today, as I do most every morning, you are your OWN superhero.
Till I could teach you.
Till you could understand what I said.
I wore the words for both of us.
As you grew.
And talked.
And showed you could sense what they meant I handed the tee-shirt reigns over to you.
I reread this post frequently & it still brings tears of joy to my eyes.
These KINDERdays when I whisper those words Im likely to be met with sighs of “I know, Mama!”
And a quick departure to change into this:
I pray you never lose sight of your powers.
I pray you use them for those who have none.
I pray in those moments when you forget what you posses you still remember to look inward not outward for answers.
More than anything I thank you for teaching me the real meaning behind what has always been one of my favorite quotes:
Enjoy all the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
Only now do I really understand.
Happy birthday.
May it only be filled with little things.
