Another year has flown by, so many chapters opened, closed, memories made, and another year to find beauty in this world and make it a better place for EVERYONE. This year is dedicated to spread love and light, its fading and we need to turn it back on.
So many emotions, its hard to stay positive when you fear for your children's future. I am so fortunate to have a roof over my head an amazing family, food to fill my belly and the feeling of safety. All of which we should never take for granted.
Luca is growing up so fast, he is already so independent, has sleep overs by himself at his Nonni's, goes to school like a champ, and is becoming this little human being that I could not be more proud of. Watching your child grow up is the most satisfying, and tender feeling, yet the whole time your thinking, where the hell did time go.
All any Mamma wants is that their child grows up happy and healthy. And that is what Luca will be. I will forever be proud of him, as I continue to love the crap out of him and teach and guid him on the path we are walking to happiness, serenity, understanding, positivity, and last but not least love.
I ask only one thing of you. Walk that same path as well. Life will be sweeter.
