Hello Ethan

Hello my sweet boy. You are now 9 years old.. Time has flown by so fast. I sometimes sit and think about when you were a baby. It doesn't seem like its been that long ago but it seems like it went by to fast. The best advice I can give you is to not rush threw your life.. I regret so much rushing through life.  Always waiting for the next thing and not cherishing the moments and memories that are right in front of me. I want you to know that I love you so so much. I am so proud of you. You are smart and kind. (when you want to be) of coarse you have your moments but I know that you are gong to grow up and be a great person. I want you to do what ever you want to in life. If its fishing or hunting or playing sports.. just remember to be a good person while you figure out what it is that you want to do with your life.. Don't get discouraged bc you are small. You might be smaller then other people your age but you are mighty! You a strong and healthy and very smart and funny. I love you so much.

                                                                  Love you more. -mom
