Happy Birthday Joshua

When Joshua was three years old he placed his forehead against mine and whispered "I will always protect you from the monsters". No truer words have been said.
 
My son is courageous and strong.
 
He feels deeply and loves hard. He has a fiery temper but apologizes after the blaze.
 
Joshua loves hip hop dancing and he head-spins like a pro.
 
He still wants to cuddle with his mom and dad. But is fiercely independent and hates the word "no".
 
Josh likes pizza for breakfast and chamomile tea at night. He proudly sports a Mohawk. But secretly watches Disney movies about princes falling in love.
 
Everyday my son protects me from the monsters of idleness, impatience, selfishness, stagnation, fear and isolation. He helps me be a better person.
 
Joshua and his sister are the reasons I am here and my biggest dream is for them to happy.
 
Josh is seven today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY my precious son!
