Christopher

You are the first of my two angels. The night you were born was one of the best moments of my life,
your father and I could not be more proud. We named you Christopher because your great grandmother
wanted your name to come from the bible, and what could be a more perfect name than to name you
after a saint. You were one of two beautiful babies and when we brought you home we realized you
were going to be a handful, because I don’t think we got a full night’s sleep for the first year.
As you got older you were too smart in school and we received numerous calls from your teacher which
continued till we realized that you were just bored and that made you a day dreamer. I remember being
a day dreamer myself, but I was never as smart as you! As you got older you were always in trouble in
one way or another, but now I know you were just making your mark in your life. As you got older you
became a man that made us very proud and any obstacle you came upon you conquered. Your
graduation day was wonderful to see you made it past that obstacle with a shining light. It is so amazing
how much you look like your grandfather, He was so handsome and it hurts me that you never got to
see him but I know he looks down on you with pride. If he were still alive he would walk around like a
proud peacock showing you off in every way. I know your world fell apart when your other grandfather
past, but he loved you so that the memories of him are wonderful. When you started working you had
numerous obstacles because you never let anyone use you and sometimes it just backfired. When you
started working on cars I realized just how talented you really were, not to say I didn’t think you were
talented in other things, it just showed me what was more of a passion, there was nothing you couldn’t
do. You went to work for a dealership which sometimes recognizes your talent. When you moved out on
your own a part of me didn’t want you to go, but it was time to be on your own and you have grown so
much in the past few years. I love your choice of girlfriend and she make a perfect fit for you, but
ultimately that will be your choice. You have two beautiful nephews that will always look up to you for
guidance, and that is a very important to help mold them. You have always been our shining light and
year after year we become prouder of your achievments, because there are no obstacles you can’t
overcome. But remember if anything happens that you cannot handle we are here always for you,
because you are one of our two best achievements. To sum it up you cannot mess with the original
because you are one of our favorite works of art. Love you always my main man and i wish you all the
success in the world. Love till our dying day and then for eternity!
