Can I just show my beautiful boy off please

[23yearsagotoday]

I want to show him off, if that's ok.

Its been a long time since anyone but me has acknowledged him. Sorry the photos aren't too great, there were no camera phones in the 90s so I had to take a picture of a photo.

He would be 23 now, and as handsome as his little brother no doubt.

He was so beautiful, he was a skinny wee tall boy, all eyes and feet 😂 he was tiny but his eyes were huge and he had ginormous feet.

Everyone always said he has wise eyes, and an old soul. I really felt he was an old soul too.

He fought so hard through his illness, but he was taken from me anyway.

He was cremated in his green top and green socks, that was my favourite outfit on him.

He is still so loved and missed every day. I adored him, my first born, my precious baby boy, he changed my life, he made me a mum, he taught me what love is, and now that love has no place to go so it has turned to grief.

Forever my baby ❤

He wasn't even safe when he was asleep. Every second was a photo op. He looks so peaceful in this one (and also well dressed).

Thank you all for taking the time to acknowledge him. It means the world to me.

Beautiful boy ❤️

What a lovely gorgeous little boy 😍 show him off all you like you will always be his mummy.
So sorry for your loss 💐

He's absolutely beautiful @23yearsagotoday. I have a deep soft spot for skinny babies as both my two were. I love those delicate pixie features and huge eyes. He's such a gorgeous boy.

Aw, thinking of you and your beautiful little boy Scott. So sorry for your loss

He is absolutely gorgeous, those beautiful eyes. You'll never be 'over' him, I think sometimes people just don't know how to react. He is forever your little boy and I truly believe you'll meet again. If you don't believe in that, that's fine, you know he still lives on in your heart.

This brought tears to my eyes. What a lovely little boy. Thinking of you and Dotty xx

To answer pp, my sons are Dotty and Shorty, and my pets names through the years have been Alan, Kevin, Roger and Sally 😂 pet names for my children and people names for my pets.

He’s sooo cute 😍

Have loved seeing his photos-

what a darling Dot!!

Glad to help you look back on your boy-you sound like such a lovely Mum.

What a cutie x

Your little boy sure is gorgeous.

I can see why that outfit was one of your favourite's seeing as he looks so adorable in it.

What a beautiful boy! He will be so proud of his strong and loving mum 💗🥰

The MOST beautiful boy!

He is the most precious little fellow. Thank you for sharing lovely Scott with us, OP, I'm really glad that I got to start this week knowing about him and about all the love you have for him.

Ah he is gorgeous, he looked like he was having such happy dreams in that last one. When our baby DD died my DH’s friend explained that in his culture babies who die stay babies eternally so that when their parents die too they get to spend eternity enjoying their most perfect and innocent period. I’m not sure if that will be any comfort to you but I was happy to accept that. Eternity with our beloved babies.
