I can’t believe how fast the summer went by. Time flew and we’re now beginning September. School has begun, fall is upon us and I’ve become an Auntie for the 4th time. This precious angel’s name is Lucas Raphael.
He’s my sister’s third and last son. I’m to be Godmother of this sweet angel. I’m over the moon. I have one son – 19 years old. This little guy is special and allowing me to enjoy being a loving Aunt and in my eyes a second mama to him. I love his brothers equally as much as him. I view myself as their second mama as well. I want to be there for them and help them to grow strong, smart and to succeed in life.
My son is about to begin his junior year of college. I’m excited! I can’t hold him in my arms anymore like when he was young but I sure can still hug him, feeling him close. When I think about him leaving home, my heart aches. But, I would never hold him back and have told him he has wings and should fly. When the time comes for him to leave, I’ll let him go knowing our bond is strong and can sustain state lines dividing us.
You bring them into this world for yourself. Then you send them off to participate in the world and you hope they achieve greatness. You hope they will bring positive change to the world in what they do. I know he’ll achieve greatness. I see the star in his eye.
I did a good job raising him. I still play a role in his life – mentoring him, cheering for him and most importantly loving him. I’m passing this on to my nephews.
September is here. The change of season is coming. Change and growth are inevitable. The world turns, allowing each of us a new day every 24 hours to play a role, get another chance, make a change, do something great. What’s living if you don’t have dreams, plans, ambitions to achieve?
Dynamical.
