Dear Jonathan
Nine years ago, around this time, i was really nervous as I was about to see you in a few hours. Giving birth was at that time really scary to me but at the same time, I really wanted to hold you in my arms.
Nine years later, I have grown to love you as you are, Jonathan, my very wonderful child. You changed me so much and I know that there is so much more mummy can do for you. Thank you for being so patient with me and for teaching me so many new things. It is uncanny that you like exactly the same food as mummy – cookies, chocolate, cake, chicken, candy, ice cream. We are alike in so many ways.
There are times Mummy has been really tough on you. Like trying to teach you to play piano and mathematics. I am sorry for being so hard on you. I know I should be more patient with you as you have a simple pure heart, and you are most fragile when stressed. Learning is difficult for you and I know you are trying your best. If you bear with me, Mummy will try harder and be better.
So on your 9th birthday my son, I want to wish you great happiness and that you will always enjoy the simple things in life.
I am very proud of you Jonathan and love you very much.
Love and Kisses,
Mummy.
