I turned 25 today.
It's so weird to be 25. It feels different. Somehow in my mind I am and will eternally be just 19. Strange.
When I was a few years more than your age, I've always had an ideal vision of how my life would be once I get to mid-20s - definitely married, definitely with kids, and definitely out of home. Well, obviously, I am far from tying the knot or leaving the house. But I have you. And that's going to top anything in this world.
For my birthday, I asked you to write me a letter. Tita Kym helped.
You wrote me the nicest, sweetest thing. You can easily be the smartest boy in your class because from what I heard from your teacher, you read and write pretty fast! And you're just five! You've only been under her wing for just a few months and look at your wonderful progress. You amaze me everyday, Lior.
For my 25th, I wish for happiness and opportunities to grow.
I love you, Cheng. I love you.
Always,
Mama
