3. Just to see you smile

4. "My Son Watching you
grow has been the delight
of my life. I look at you
and wonder what dreams
you will dream, what
mountains you will
climb, what joys you will
have. I know there will be
tears and struggles as
well, but my prayer is
that you will grow into
the man you are meant to
be."

5. "Boys are meant for kisses and hugs, For
watching rainbows and catching bugs, For
sharing all of your favorite things, For books
to read and songs to sing."

6. I've been blessed to
have
a brother like you
You're my pal, my
buddy
and my best friend too!

7. There is a great big world out there, I hear it can be a fright.
But take my hand and hold on-I know we’ll be alright.
Brother and sister we will forever be.
I am so happy; I have my best friend right here with me.
Our journey will be great, lots of fun, and even intense…but how bad can it be
when you are with your best friend?

8. My little eyes
are watching
All you say and do
And when I grow up
big and tall
I want to be like you.
My little ears
are listening
To everything you say
I am learning how
to grow up
To be like you
someday.
So be careful how
you teach me
To be the person
that you are.
You’re a knight in
shining armor
You’re my brightest
shining star.

11. The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom. -
Henry Ward Beecher

13. Through good times and bad...
Some I'll always remember
Some I wish I could forget,
Remember you will always be
My brother and my friend.

15. Our journey is almost over
but yours my son, has just begun.
As we finish up on this roller coaster of a ride
You will soon begin a new kind of ride.

16. You don't raise heroes, you raise sons. And if you
treat them like sons, they'll turn out to be
heroes, even if it's just in your own eyes. ~Walter
M. Schirra, Sr.

17. Memories are
always in the
heart

18. “My father gave me the
greatest gift anyone could
give another person, he
believed in me.” - Jim Valvano

19. Your eyes bring joy
to my face

21. You bring
music to my
heart

23. Happy
Birthday my
boy!
“All things
grow with
time”

24. WITH LOVE,
YOUR MOM
