Tonight I don't want to write about me.

Tonight I don't want to write about my husband.

Tonight I want to write about my son.

My son is an amazing individual. From the first moments of his life, I looked over to him in his hospital bassinet, under a sun light and as he looked at me, I thought, "this kid is destined for something more in life." And it was true.

My son is a personality plus kid. He can network like no one I have ever met, and he is confident in himself to succeed. The moment he picked up his first bassoon, it was love at first sight, and nothing slowed him down after that. He puts everything he has into it and not just his bassoon, but his academic work. Tonight he was honored along with the other high school honor students. When he stood up to say where he would be going to school and what his major would be, he confidently announced, that he would one day be famous.

I believe him. I believe in him. No matter what else happens to our family, I know that my son will succeed.

He is ready to launch.
