Bubba

Dear Bubba Thomas,

You have not even been here with us for 24 hours yet, and already you are so adored and loved that you may never be able to fully comprehend it! Your Mama has gone through hell (and back) to make sure that you get here safely, and to a home that is made of love, warmth, laughter, kindness and just plain old goodness.

I miss your Mama every day, EVERY day, Bubba. So, you give her tons of drool-filled, slobbery kisses for me, okay, and help her out whenever she needs. I know you are small, and have much to learn, but you also have a magical power... you can smile, and the universe is made right for us Mamas again. You fart, it's magical. You poo on the regular, magical. You discover things, like fingers and toes... you reach for us... MAGICAL! You squawk or squeal or make any kind of a noise... pure magic. Just opening your eyes, yes, that too my new lil friend, is magical.

For you, Bubba Thomas, I wish a life-time of laughter; of knowing you are always (ALWAYS) so sooo loved (even when you may feel all alone); of having the freedom and the courage to dream and to play... I wish for you a life-long amazing relationship with the most bad-ass, adorable, freaking rock-star-of-a-big sister you could ever ask for (that's right, Madi!) I wish that harm did not have to come your way, but since it's inevitable, that when it does knock on your door, that you know you never have to face anything alone, and that you are already so strong and so brave and so smart-- you made it here to us, after all! You can do anything, be anything!!

There is soo much to say! Your cousin, Bubba King, sends you slobbery kisses and delighted laughter, knowing that he has another addition to his family. We love you! We can't wait to meet you and Miss Madi in person, to hug and play and eat amazing food together!! You boys are going to love the trampoline... trust me. ;)

With Love,
Auntie k
