Mauri,
Today, I celebrate 20 years of you since your birth.
15 years of physical life and 5 years of spiritual life.
What was once one of our best days have somehow become bittersweet.
I always think about the young man you would become.
Would you still have twists?
Would you still act like people don't exist lol?
Would Chinese food and sausage biscuits still be your favorite food?
How's college or the workforce?
What are you begging for now when the 1st part of the text starts with: "You know your my favorite mama right?" ๐
I could go on and on ๐ฅบ
Yes, I am sad that we are not able to celebrate an earthly birthday but I'll always celebrate you in spirit.
Today, I simply thank God for you and the time that he has given us to be together ๐๐พ
They say there's no new memories, but I beg to differ.
The way we celebrated you on Saturday. The laughter, the smiles, the hugs, the food, the music, the joy, I felt your whole existence!
It was that day that mentally prepared me for this day. So much love that gave me hope and healing๐
Today, I celebrate your day in Mauri's way๐๐
Only God knows how much I miss you!
Happy 20th birthday son!
