Happy Birthday Hudson!

Hudson,

I cannot believe you are 11 years old today. You are becoming a young man! I have loved watching you grow up and look forward to the years to come. You may struggle at times, the next few years are not going to be easy as you grow and figure out who you are. But I want you to know how much I love you, how much your Daddy and I both love you. We are with you always, will support you and love you, no matter what decisions you make and no matter what else is going on in our lives. You and your sister are, and always have been, our #1 priority.

I pray that one day, when you are old enough, I will show you this blog, I will let you see a little bit more about me that you may be too young to understand just yet. But when that day comes, I hope you will understand that I love you and that everything your Daddy and I do is because we love you, and we want you to become the best man you can be.

You have such a wonderful heart, Hudson! You are so strong and smart! You can make up raps like no one else, and you are such a great dancer. I know you don't think so, but you get that from your Daddy. And your future wife will love that about you! You make me laugh and smile all the time. You are kind and gentle, and very thoughtful, such a sweet boy you are!

I hope you are having a blessed day at school, and I can't wait to see your smiling face this afternoon. I love you buddy! Happy Birthday!

Love,
Julie
