Happy Birthday Dante

Posted on Friday, September 22nd, 2006 at 6:06 am under Personal.

Son, today you turn four. Happy birthday. One day when you are old you will read this and be reminded that according to you, your long name is Dante Batman Superman Spiderman Supergirl Batgirl Hulk Rocky(the thing) Fire Guy Freeze Girl. No kidding. Also, we made a deal for you to eat vegetables, walk(no stroller) and clean your bottom all by yourself when you turn four. So here we are at the fourth year mark, let’s see how that goes.

Your are the most unique boy I have ever met. You have a gentle and creative spirit that endears everyone you come across with. And you still have a wonderful baby way of talking. So here’s a toast to you my son. I love you. Life just wouldn’t be as joyful without you.

Love,
Dad.
