The best part of my day is the joy infused by ur smile, ur hugs, the tender way u put your hand on my face or suddenly say, “Mummy, how was YOUR day?” I couldn’t live without ur affection and kindness. Don’t ever apologize for who u are, for what u want, for how hard you have worked or where u are going in life. I don’t doubt you will work hard, but I can already see signs that you are quick to apologize, to back down. Don’t. You have learned this from me and I wish I could take it back. Stand your ground, be proud of u. Do not live to make others happy or to measure up to someone else’s expectations. Be Cooper.This is enough. Be a student. Be a teacher. Learn at every opportunity. Read. Be inquisitive. Ask. And when you know something and know it well teach others. Do not hoard ur knowledge, ur gifts share them. There is inherent beauty in being both student and teacher. It is a gift to learn and a privilege to teach. I wish u wins and losses, trophies and empty shelves. As much as I would love to see u succeed in everything u do… as much as I believe in ur gifts, I must wish you challenges. For it is within the losses, the 3rd, 4th and 5th places, and the failures that your character will be built. It is my job, as ur mum, to do my best to guide u through these moments. If everything was to be easy for u, u would be ill-prepared for the ‘real’ world. I promise u, life is not always easy. ur dreams: do them ur heart follow it. ur family treasure them. ur friends: be loyal to them. ur fears embrace them and allow them to make u stronger ur passion: happy birthday my lovely son, love u it ur day Marciano Essou sanyang xxx
