Peanut

You were my first

I used to talk about you as a child

How I wanted at least one boy

I was chastised for playing with girly toys

And playing house

But I did not care

I knew one day you would come

And when you did

I could not imagine the happiness

Of having a boy

I will never forget the first time I laid eyes on you

The tears of joy

Knowing you were my boy

That night

I knew my second instance of love at first sight

Yet, it was only the beginning

Of my love for you

A love that has only grown as you have

My handsome boy

I will love you always
