Cancer was NOT what defined Connor, a remarkable ZEST FOR LIFE, love for his family and friends, never uttering a complaint about his illness, his caring and compassionate nature......those are just a few of a long list of things that defined Connor. Cancer did NOT defeat Connor, Connor acquired the ultimate victory over cancer!

At 6:42 am, 15 years ago, Eddie and I were blessed with Connor's entry into this world. The greatest moment of either of our lives, hands down. Connor is celebrating his birthday in Heaven, I can only imagine what a celebration that will be......

My dearest Connor,

Wow....15 years old...HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLING! :) It is so difficult for me to comprehend that you would now be 15! I remember the moment of your birth just like it was yesterday! There will never, ever be another moment in my life that can compare to that one. I hope and pray that you know JUST how much you are loved and missed. Some people think that since it will be 5 years tomorrow since your journey to Heaven, that we must be "over it" by now. There could be nothing further from the truth. I miss you every second of every minute of every hour of every single day.....and that will never change. I talk about you so much, to this day, and do all I can to keep your memory alive. You are the greatest Blessing that God has ever given to me, and I am so thankful that He chose me to be your Mom. You have taught me so much, Cconnor. Isn't it supposed to be the other way around....?:) As tears stream down my face right now, I just want you to know that I love you so very much, and that...when the time comes, I will be right there with you again...for eternity. Happy Birthday, my Sunshine "Boy"......I thank God every day for the gift of "YOU"......

All my love Forever.....
Mommy
