he's always had it

17 years ago
I gave birth to a beautiful
baby boy
~~~~~
who
has made us laugh
make your cheeks hurt
tears in your eyes
pee your pants
laugh
at least once each day
since then
~~~~~
to my sweet boy
thank you for adding
so much to
our
lives
~~~~~
we wouldn't be
*us*
without
you
*
happy birthday
