Dreams of the Parent

When your children are born you have your dreams for them but you never really know what direction they will take… where their life will go. As they grow up those dreams you had… you quietly erase them as you allow the dreams they have… to gradually replace them. And your dream for them becomes more universal you care less if they are wealthy… you want them to be loving and generous to be happy, kind and healthy. I never dreamed our son would do what I did never wanted him to be like me… but I am proud of the life he’s chosen and the person he came to be… Case in point…he sent us a picture only a day ago of him atop an electric scooter in San Antonio. Now, I never dreamed he’d ride an electric scooter never dreamed he’d be in that place… but often I have dreamed about that smile on his face… Sure he's not living my initial dream… how many children do? but knowing he is living his… has made my dream come true.
