Sunday Funnies: Birthdays

My godson, Gregory, is turning 16 today. …I feel old.

When he was born, his mother asked me to be his godmother. When we were children we’d made a promise that when we had kids we would be the godmothers to each other’s children. She bred first and kept the promise. He is my only godson. Whilst I was not able to attend his Christening, I did make the effort to meet him when he was 4 y/o. He showed love for me immediately, like he’d known me all along. I brought him a fleece, tie-dyed horse stuffie to remember me by. According to his mother, he slept with it for a long time. Today, he doesn’t remember it.

Now he is 16, almost a man. He’s got a little sister now, and a girlfriend that he is engaged to. He’s grown into a young gentleman, for which I’m thankful. I wish I’d been able to watch him grow up, but now I have my own little boy to watch grow up.

So for my godson, whose only wish from me on this day, was to have an article dedicated to him. Happy Birthday Gregory. I love you very much.
