Happy 17th Birthday to MY SON!!!

My Dear Son,
Come and gone in my life has been many years. There's been sorrow, yet, also we've shed some happy tears.
It seems I blinked yesterday and like a dream, YOU, my oldest are no longer a baby for today YOU turned 17.
You are who you are supposed to be named. Because before you were born, you were Eric James.
Yet, on this day in January 1996, I couldn't do it. YOU had to share your dads name also so you became Eric Pruitt.
When you were younger you brought us so much joy. Now you are growing into a young man and no longer a boy.
If I blink my eyes again other days will be gone and you will be another year older. Yet, I am always here for you to lean on if you ever need my shoulder.
You were my first angel sent from above. There is no greater gift I can give YOU than my LOVE.
My FAITH, my HOPE, my PATIENCE, and my GUIDANCE too, For GOD was the one who sent me YOU.
Before the day I look and you are graduated and gone. I want to tell YOU how much YOU ARE LOVED while in OUR HOME.
TODAY is a special day that no-one can take away from YOU.It is a joyous occassion where we hope your dreams come true.HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU on this 24th day of January the year 2013. I am putting you safely in GOD's hands now no matter what your life may bring.
There is still so much to you I want to say. Yet, the most important this is: I WAS BLESSED WHEN GOD SENT YOU MY WAY.
May ALL YOUR HOPES, WISHES, and DREAMS come true. For this was written from YOUR MOMMA's heart just for YOU.
I know if you put your heart and mind in it that you can do it:
HAPPY 17TH BIRTHDAY, (MY DEAR SON),    ERIC PRUITT!!!!!
