runs with it. this is to my son. it says, hi, son. how are you? how's it going? how is life treating you? i want you to know i'm proud of you. you're growing up so fast. the time passes so quick. i hope your birthday's the best. you're such a great son. keep school and sports. that's number one. i know right now it might not seem like it but keep out of trouble and stay focused on life. i think of you and your brother all the time. i have a picture of you and him on the wall right next to where i sleep. life is rough. and then it gets more rough. but you've got to stay open-minded and understand life is a test. you're the student. i love you, jeremy, don't ever think different. i know i have a funny way of showing it. and it seems even harder when you don't talk to me. but i know you're growing up and you need your space to see life for what it is. but if you ever want to talk or see me, let mom know.
