we had cake and presents a day early so dad could be here |
but you've made it to twelve
despite our struggles, I'm proud of you
you look after Sophie when I need to cook
you help with household chores
you even enjoy reading books now
your grades are slowly picking up
and you're a great friend and big brother
The next year is going to be a great adventure for you
getting ready to finish primary school and head to high school
Happy Birthday, Douglas!
Happy birthday to Douglas too - he sounds a very fine young man :). And he can only grow even finer with such love and pride behind him.
ReplyDeleteTwelve's a tough age for a boy to be, halfway between being a child and a young man. But it sounds like, with your guidance, he's doing just fine! Happy Birthday to him!
