Our son is turning 7 and they have been the best 7 years of my life.
I am so lucky to have the both of you in my life and I wouldnt want it any other way.
Thank you for being so strong and connected. You are always there when he needs you.

Age 1, learned how to walk
Age 2, learned how to talk
Age 3, learned how to create
Age 4, learned how to make a mistake
Age 5, learned who is a best friend
Age 6, learned how to let go
Age 7, learns how to follows his heart..

Co-parenting is never easy when the parents involved are not on the same page of understanding as the other.
Luckily on our sons end he has the best of both worlds. We have compassion, understanding, love, and forgiveness.
We can be a team without being together and that is all I could ever ask for our son to see.

This is my moment to thank you for being an amazing father to him.
I am entirely grateful he has you in his life to love him, to care for him, to be there with him.  
I want you to teach him how to follow his dreams, how to open his heart and to show him how to love unconditionally.  
To show him that even though things may not go as planned, there is always a positive in a negative situation.  
You have made an impact on our lives and we love you so much.
You mean a lot to our hearts.

Thank you for being compassionate.
Thank you for being understanding.
Thank you for being strong.
Thank you for being everything to him.

Cheers to the next 11 years
To my ex-husband, the father of my child, the love in my heart as my best friend.
