I know it's hard to see him like this, your child, your baby, so fragile, so small. I know it's against your nature not to be able to take care of him, and protect him. But baby, you are! Just by being there, by sitting next to him, by watching him, and holding his tiny finger. And even when you can't hold his hand, he knows you still have his back. You ask about his stats, his progress, and even when you're worried, you still help me through the day. Even without holding him and rocking him to sleep, he still knows your smell, and the sound of your voice. He feels your love and know you're proud of him. Just know the moments you share are special, and that even when you can't be with him, I know you wish you were, and your heart always is. You've given him the greatest gift, you've fought for him from the beginning, you've believed in him. I can't wait till y'all get to have those daddy and son days, I know he'll look up to you like you're superman. I know he'll want to show the world that he has the best daddy, a daddy so great he couldn't wait to meet him. Happy First Father's Day baby, you've been so strong for us, and I appreciate you in every way possible.
