Son, our first borne child, Happy Birthday Emery. Elation was electric throughout the family at your birth ... first son, first grandchild, first great-grandchild on all sides. Never was there a doubt we were having a wee bundle of blue.Our joy the day your father met you is etched forever in many minds ... as he came thru that door on leave from the USNavy, to meet his 6 week old son. The tears in his eyes as he whispered 'my son', on bended knee ... this moment as precious as gold, to hold closely in heart & mind forever.
We can only THANK YOU for being a loving, caring & precious son & father ... you have given us so much in life thru the bumps & joys ... how blessed we are & deeply grateful you are the adult you have become.
With all our love, forever ~ Mother & Dad

ReplyDeleteGood Morning Marydon Sweetie...
ReplyDeleteOh my how precious this picture of Emery is. What a precious bundle and I can in my mind see Harold on bended knee seeing his wee bundle for the first time.
Emery is such a fine Man, Father and Husband. He was such a pleasure to meet on my recent visit. He has instilled his beautiful qualities in both of his children.
Happy Birthday Emery and I hope you all have a wonderful birthday meal today in celebration. I understand that you are all going to dinner.
Hope your day is going well sweet Sis. I have so missed you. Many hugs and so much love for you. Your Lil Sis, Sherry

Happy Birthday to Emery and the story about his father seeing him for the first time when he was 6 weeks old really touched my heart. Hubby was in the Air Force during the Vietnam years and we knew of many who didn't get to meet their babies until they were a few months old...and some, sadly, never got to meet their babies.
ReplyDeleteThat is alot of first....
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthady to your firstborn.
Wishing your sweet son a very Happy Birthday!
ReplyDelete, a big giant Happy Birthday is being sent your way for your sweet son Emery! May you all have a wonderful time celebrating and have many many more years of birthday celebrations together.
