Brandon's Puppy

Welcome to the world, Matthew Dylan Dufau!

Dear Matthew,

This is your Uncle Val writing to welcome you to this world and to let you know that you were born on January 30, 2007 at 1:27 pm to the most wonderful mother and father any baby could ask for. All of us, your Titi Maura and Uncle Alain, your grandmothers and grandfathers, assorted aunts and uncle and great aunts and uncles and great grandmas and grandpas are overjoyed. Your big brother, Brandon, is still a little shook up, but Im sure youll always have him to play ball with, run around the yard with, play toy soldiers with and always have him to look up to. He'll be your Big Bro who will protect you from all those schoolyard bullies and icky girls.

You have been gifted with the most wonderful and loving family imaginable, who will cherish you and pray for you and do their darndest to make sure you are healthy and happy and never be want of anything. And let me let you in on a little secret before you find out on your own: you have the absolute best Mommie in the world. I know because I feel like her father and can tell you from firsthand experience. I know she is and always will be as proud of you as I am of her.

As for me, your Great Uncle Val, Ill always be here for you when you need me, just like Ive always tried to be here for your Mommie. Im ready to teach you how to fish, how to play football, how to pick up chicks and one day, when youre ready, how to cook lechon.

Welcome into our hearts, Matthew Dylan. Make yourself at home. We all made plenty of room for you.

Besos,

Uncle Val
