A Letter to My Boys
Dear D and Cowboy,
This mother is very, very proud to be the lady in your life (lives).
I want to thank you for being so kind, and funny, and responsive to my often crazy ideas.
D… thanks for being my best friend. The person who never (out loud) thinks that my zany ideas are , well, zany. Thanks for giving me room to explore my creativity and to be me. The me you met and dated, and later made an honest woman. You are the best friend a girl could ever hope for… and I love you with all my heart and am so proud to be your wife.
Cowboy, you are an amazing child. You have a sensitivity that I hope never leaves you. You are polite beyond your years and you take delight in all that comes your way. You have the creativity bug, too. And I think it is as bad as the one that bit me. And, I love you. Like a love that I have never had with anyone else. Your my boy… and I am so, so proud to be your mama.
So, my boys, thanks for making me a mama. Thanks for a very special day of gardening yesterday and of toying with my new GPS! 
Thanks for making me laugh, giving me direction, and making me whole.
I love you both so much,
E.
