Happy Double Digits!
This birthday seems particularly poignant given that you are now 10! You have grown up so much this year, its been amazing to watch. Your stint at camp, while hard, I know has helped you be proud of yourself. You learned a lot and so did I.
Its been wonderful watching you grow up. You are funny, super smart, handsome, and talented at many things. I think one of your most endearing qualities is how empathetic you are. I loved your story about helping the kid at camp who was feeling homesick. That was such a sweet thing for you to do. But I shouldn't be surprised. That is who you are. I look forward to seeing you shine this year, at a new school, with new friends, new challenges. You are a wonderful son. I couldn't be luckier.
