Happy Birthday Buddy!
Happy Birthday Buddy!
Hey Buddy! First and foremost, happy birthday! I wanted you to have THE coolest 4th birthday because now that you're so big, you gotta keep it cool. So what did I get you? Well... the first thing I got you was this state of the art super duper cyber fort of a website. This will be here forever and every year we can build it together. Besides, one day if you ever need it once you're a super star dinosaur expert Rockstar extraordinaire you will already have your very own web domain. So let this be our treehouse we build together and I cannot wait to hear all the cool ideas for what we can put up here.
I also got you some VERY VERY cool devices that you can use to call me to tell me all the super cool ideas you have and how your day was. The little orange thing.. get mommy to turn it on and press the button in the middle... ITS SO COOL. ITS A WALKIE TALKIE TO DADDY! Anytime you press that button Daddy will hear you and be able to talk with you. No matter what day or time it is, you can call me to tell me a joke, goodnight, good morning or just to tell me what you ate! Also, I can keep you updated on what Annie and Izzy are doing. There is also a super cool ORANGE dino necklace that you clip to the cool SURFER dino phone ring so you can sport that bad boy around your neck. So! 10-4 Good Buddy! We got us a cybernetic convoy! BUT.. don't forget to share this with your brother too.
The second device I got for us is an Amazon Glow, which is a very cool device for cool dudes like you and Andrew. We can talk on the phone WWWWHILE we play games! Mommy will set it up and you have to not touch the device, but that is the easy part because its got a MMMMAGIC mat that you can touch and play on. It uses lidar.. I mean MAGIC to let us play games and read stories, all together again. I will read you a bed time story whenever you want to and I can also teach you to play some games! They have toy story, barbie, and lots of other cool dude games and books to play with WHILE you talk to Daddy. Also, those tangrams are for the glow, so we will have to figure those out!!
I also got you a picture of us. Its one of my favorite pictures of us and I want you to see that picture everyday and remember what a great day it was. I had such a wonderful afternoon lying the hammock with you and just quietly looking at the clouds like we always did. I miss that day and I miss you something terrible. I hope soon you can come here and we can do that again. I got you a shirt and a sweatshirt with our pic on it and I also love that cool dude picture of us at the airport that time.
You probably notice the super cool book too. I felt like you needed some good old fashioned books too. I hope you like it.
I love you so very much and I miss you every single day. I love when you call me. I love to hear about how you are. I miss you especially on your birthday. I hope its a wonderful day and I hope all your wishes come true little man. I love you. Call me!
-Daddy
PS. This song has and always will reminds me of you. I hope you know how much you changed my life and showed me what joy is. Best wishes and a million hugs and kisses.
Hello, my son
Welcome to earth
May not be my last
But you'll always be my first
Wish I'd done this ten years ago
But how could I know
How could I know
That the answer was so easy
I've been told you measure a man
By how much he loves
When I hold you
I treasure each moment I spend
On this earth, under heaven above
Grandfather always said God's a fisherman
And now I know the reason why
And if some times daddy has to go away
But please don't think that it means I don't love you
Oh, how I wish I could be there everyday
'Cause when I'm gone it makes me so sad and blue
And holding you is the greatest love I've ever known
Oh, when I get home it breaks my heart
Seeing how much you've grown, all on your own, oh
Oh, hearing that
Made me cry
It made me cry
Hearing me cry
A thousand miles away
Every cry
(Greatest love I've ever known)
(Oh, ever known)
