Being the example you need in the world and embracing you as one of my greatest teachers is a role I treasure. We have full faith that you will come back home, and when you do, we will welcome you with open arms. I promise to work at being the best parent I can be for you, and as a son, I want you to become the best teenager you can be.When they arrived I was so happy, beautifully presented, amazing quality and overall a fantastic product.

As I wait for my son to arrive it's hard to remember exactly how I felt waiting for the arrival of my daughter, less than two years ago, but I know she changed everything. Since around 10 months old, you actively work to have gentle hands and share with your sister and it's astonishing how much you understand AND try in social situations.Though we’ve been looking forward to this day, it is bittersweet – I love seeing you flourish and grow yet I’m so sad to be leaving behind the baby days and approaching toddlerhood.
