You've got me crying at my desk at work! What a terrific boy you've raised. Congratulations on both counts - your weight loss and your amazing, caring, empathetic child.

No tears Fiona.. it's all happy moments.
I feel like.. it was forever ago that I couldn't get my own shoes on. It killed me every single day to see that he was more of a caretaker than a child. I never realized how much he fell into that role, and depended on it for his self-worth.
I have to find other ways, to tell him every single day how much he's appreciated. That the things he used to have to do for me.. do not define his worth to me..
It's a new life.. a fresh start. My son is my blessing for sure.. If I could change.. one thing about him.. it would be that he's a human wrecking ball.. lol So incredibly messy. But not at the cost of losing one thing about his character and compassion. I'll keep the messy : )
