My Special Boy- Doggy Boy

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Thoughts Memories Captured

Doggie boy and me

Nearly 6 years ago you came into our life. Our 2nd born, the middle child and our 2nd son. You are one of the most expressive out of the three children that I have. I love your big eyes and long eye lashes which are the envy of all the ladies around. I love how you wake up with a smile on your face and never fail to give me a kiss goodnight before going to sleep each night.

Doggy boy's 1st day of school

A lot have changed since your 1st day in school. In a blink of an eye you are now almost finishing kindergarten and entering elementary school. You are no longer the timid little guy that use to hide behind me whenever you didn’t want to talk to adults or people around you. You are more confident these days and even initiate conversations with others.

You have a big generous heart and ever willing to help out at home and with your siblings. You are kind and considerate and my special little guy. You play your role well as a big brother in helping your sister adapt to her new life in school by showing your concern for her.

You have been very giving and expect little in return. You are mummy’s special boy.

It may not be now, tomorrow or next year but slowly bit bit I will get there. With guidance and love from my parents and GOD I will be taught the difference between what is right and wrong.

Everyday I will be learning through experience the meanings of the various virtues like kindness ,integrity and honesty.

I will gradually understand the need to be self-discipline and responsible for my actions. Even though I may not agree with what my elders say and do at times I know that they have my best interest at heart.

They will show me how I can benefit from being tolerant and I will get to reap the sweet rewards that come from perseverance.

Diligence and determination will be the tools that will help to see me through any rough patches which I may get into. Practicing forgiveness for self and others will help to keep me at peace and minimize my worries.

I will be learning what it means to take proper care of myself both physically and mentally. I will learn how important it is for me to be in-charge of myself and not give in to peer and worldly influences which may be bad for me.

I will know how to respect myself enough to accept what GOD has planned for me and be able to think through on life altering decisions which I ma have to make. To pray and ask for advice when I feel my vision is clouded and to be able to let go if things don’t work out.
