Happy Birthday Seth,
I hope you have a great day. I can’t believe that you turn 12 today. I know you are here in the house with me now, albeit still sleeping; but I wanted to get something down so I don’t forget this day. I don’t know how much interaction we’ll have in the coming years and this may be the last birthday I get to spend with you.
Today is your day, you get to make all the decisions. You already picked breakfast of corned beef hash and toast. I am now just waiting for you to wake up so I can make that for you. Lunch is apparently going to be Hooters, which definitely works for me too. 
Other than that, I don’t have anything else planned. I expect that once you open your presents from me and your brothers, you won’t want to do anything but play the Nintendo DS and Wii.
You’re Mom will pick you up early afternoon. As you’re pulling out of the driveway is always the exact moment that I start missing you; and I do stand at a window and watch as long as I can. I’m sure you will have fun with her tonight. As of now, you are planning on going to Kobe’s for dinner. It’s always fun watching them cook your food right in front of you. I hope you have a great time.
Well, I’m going to pick up the house a little now before any of you kids wake up. I hope you have a Happy Birthday and a great upcoming year. Remember to always be happy. That is my wish for you. If there is ever anything I can do to help make you happy, always know that I will.
Love,
Jason.
