Know what today is?

It's my boy's birthday.

Yup. Dovi is 12 years old today.

One year till the big Bar Mitzvah. I told Benjie that I need to figure out a way to tell people that Dovi's Bar Mitzvah is in one year without crying every time. It's getting a little ridiculous.

But I digress.

I'm trying to think of some amazing, inspiring things to say.

But then I realize that there is nothing that I need to say.

Thank G-d, Dovi is here. He's healthy (in his own way). He is happy. He is thriving. His surgery on his leg in April was a success and he's walking even better. His speech is improving all the time.

I'm not sure there's anything else to say.

Happy Twelfth Birthday, Dovi Bear. We love you so much.
