To my little Pooh Bear,
I think the world stood still and smiled the moment you came into my world. You have brought more joy and happiness than I could ever have imagined.
They say a child is a story yet to be told, and I believe your story is going to top the best seller list. Everyday with you I feel like I remember a small piece of what it was like to be so fresh and new and full of wonder. I never believed one could find amazement...but I see that you do. and you do truly amaze me at every turn.
Mommy has wanted a little one for as long as she could remember, and she had to kiss a few frogs
and one very large toad before she found a prince among men in your daddy. I see everyday the love your daddy has for you, and the hopes I know he holds for you. He will be your teacher, and your coach, your drill sergant and your biggest fan. I am in awe sometimes because I know at some point you and he will have a special bond that will have a sign "no girls allowed".
I'm am so excited for the life of possibilites that lie before you my little man. That nothing is impossible, and that I will be proud...and excited for whatever makes you truly happy.
There is only a small list pooh, of things that I wish for you in this journey that you are embarking upon...
I wish you serenity in times of trial
I wish you peace in times of war
I wish you love, when you feel indifference or hate
I wish you faith, when you feel alone
I wish you hope, when you feel lost
I wish you courage, when you feel scared
I wish you confidence, when you feel lacking
I wish you humility, when you feel arrogant
I wish you compassion, when you feel callous
I want you to know that in life, it isn't what you go through, but how you go through it....
As the Great Winnie the Pooh said once:
"Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known."
I want you to know that no matter where you go on your journey, your family will be there to share in all the triumphs and defeats...and there will be both...
Just know my darling, baby boy ...if nothing else....that your mommy will love you forever....and ever and ever and ever....and evermore....
Love
Mommy

What a letter. I loved reading it!!
Sniff, sniff... no fair making other mommies weepy:)I have two teen boys now (and an 8 year old daughter) and I can honestly say that as much as they love bonding with dad they talk to me about the "emotional" stuff and they are still my boys. Okay, I can hold them and kiss their tummy like when they were babies, but still...BAHAHAHAHAHA

There is nothing like the feeling a new mom has for her baby. You've captured that very well.
Very sweet, I don't have kids yet and I cannot wait to share these feelings with my kids.
Happy SITS day! What a sweet letter!
This is so very sweet - perfect way to start my morning!
Wonderful letter. I hope you have a printed copy kept back for your Pooh to read when he's older.
Happy SITS Day!
You are going to be SOOOO glad you wrote this letter, later when life speeds up. I always meant to do it, and every birthday I mean to do it, and somehow I never do.
Good for you!
What a wonderful, touching letter!
happy SITS day. I love the letter. I want to do something like that for my son but now I just want to copy yours. lol.
What a sweet letter! Babies are so precious!
I love that quote from Winnie the Pooh.
Your Pooh has lovely blue eyes. What a cutie!
So sweet. This is a letter that will be cherished for years.
Beautiful. You have a wonderful blog
I'll be honest, I had to skip a few lines to keep from bawling my eyes out all over this bagel I'm eating.
Awww, what a sweet, sweet letter! Looking forward to seeing more this morning as I stop by from SITS! Happy SITS FB Day!
Did you add this to his baby book!? this is so sweet!! =) Give him a kiss from me! ;)
How sweet! He is a blessed young man to have you as his mommy.
A beautiful, beautiful letter.
They grow up so, so fast.
What a gorgeous little guy, too :)!
That was a sweet letter. The part about his dad almost had me in tears. I can see the special, immovable bond my DH has with our son...a different bond than with his daughters. What a blessing.
awwwww such a sweet, sweet letter! You have me in tears! *sniff*

Happy SITS day!

Makes me tear up as my little guy is SO close to turning 2 (as in a month and a few days). I really hope you enjoy your SITS day!
What a lovely letter to your child.
Happy SITS day.
What a sweet letter. He'll cherish it when he's older.
This was so sweet! And thought-provoking!
Happy Sits day! That was such a beautiful letter. So inspiring.
So touching. And what an amazing thing that your child will be able to read someday! Happy SITS day!
Your blog is wonderful, and that was an amazing letter :) Happy SITS Day!
You hold on tight to that little Pooh because before you know it you will have a teenage Pooh. And little Pooh's are much funner than teenage Pooh's!!
Visiting from SITS, and you have inspired me to write a letter to each of my children.
Greetings from a SITSa! What a lovely letter. I suggest printing and taping up somewhere you can see it regularly. There will be days, if they haven't happened already, when it's tough to keep it in perspective. Your own beautiful words can help you through it.
I came over from SITS and LOOOOVVVVED what you have written! Such a cute and special little guy!
