Tomorrow is Caiden's 9th birthday! NINE! I can't believe how fast time has flown. I still think of him as my little chunky monkey.
I'm so proud of the little man he has become. He has always known exactly what he wants. I know it may seem odd to refer to him as a man, but he has always been his age going on 30. He's strong, intelligent and extremely rational. He keeps us all grounded. He has a keen sense for others emotions and feelings, and I've seen him lie to protect us.
I am bummed that I won't be with him on his big day, but I know he is happy. He told me when he came down for Spring Break that he knew how hard this was for me because I love him so much and he loves me too, but that he was happy to be in California with his dad because his dad loves him too and deserves a chance to get to know him better. He couldn't be more right.
His big wish every year: to have ALLhis family together in one place. Maybe someday.....graduation maybe?
I love you son, I hope that you have a special day with your dad! Happy Birthday!
