I'm so excited, right now, sleeping will be difficult.
You see, I have not seen my only son since April 2014. He may be a young man, now, yet, in my heart, he is my Baby Blue.
As a baby I sang this song to him as I nursed him at my breast. I sang the song to him as a toddler, when laying him down for his nap. Then, as he grew into a child, then, a young man, I would hum the song into his ear to comfort him.
As he grew into his late teenage years, he would be moved to tears when hearing this song.
He's a tough, smart guy with a kind heart, sharp wit and purely charming. Yep. A real chik magnet!
He has completed USAF Basic Training in San Antonio, TX and is now at Sheppard AFB, Wichita Falls, Texas ~ just 56 miles north from me.
I brought him home from the hospital as an infant on July 14, one of my birthdays. His birthday is coming up on July 10.
I have bought little things for him in the years since I saw him last. On Sunday, I will go to Sheppard AFB, where he is for his tech school and give him these gifts in person. I will wrap him in a hug, probably shed a tear or two, hold him close.
Have I missed him?
Do I love him so dearly?
Abso-effing-lutely!
