Have you ever stumbled upon something so powerful that it changes the course of your life? For me, it was a simple, heartfelt letter. This letter, written by my son Dylan to his unborn brother Mason, was the spark that ignited my purpose and mission to write a children’s book.
Finding the Letter: A Moment of Inspiration
One day, while going through some old belongings, I found a letter tucked away. It was addressed to Mason from his big brother Dylan. As I read the words, I was overcome with emotion. Dylan had written about his excitement to meet Mason, sharing his dreams of holding him, teaching him, and being the best big brother he could be.
This letter wasn’t just a message from one brother to another—it was a treasure, a testament to the love and bond between siblings. It was in that moment that I knew I had to share this beautiful story with the world.
To Mason from your big brother Dylan.
I can’t wait for you to be born so I can hold you, hug you, kiss you, and play with you. I can teach you lots of new things like how to roll over. Smile, talk, climb the stairs and walk. I can’t wait to kiss your whole face.
Love your big brother Dylan.
The Story of Love, Lessons, and Adventure
"Dear Mason, From Your Big Brother Dylan" is the first book in what I hope will be a cherished series for children and their families. It’s a story that celebrates the unique and unbreakable bond between brothers. Dylan's eagerness to welcome Mason into the world, to teach him, and to guide him through life is a heartwarming reminder of the importance of family and love.
In this book, Dylan dreams of all the adventures they will have together—from playing sports and exploring nature to learning valuable life lessons. Even when Dylan faces illness, his love and wisdom remain a guiding light for Mason, showing the strength of their connection.
Honoring Dylan’s Legacy
After Dylan’s passing, it became even more important to me to keep his legacy alive. Writing this book is my way of honoring his memory and ensuring that the love and lessons he shared continue to inspire others. Dylan’s story is one of courage, kindness, and the unyielding power of brotherly love.
Why This Book Matters
This book is more than just a story; it’s a message of hope, love, and resilience. It’s for every child who looks up to their older sibling and for every parent who wants to instill the values of kindness, courage, and unconditional love in their children.
Writing this book was a deeply personal journey for me, inspired by the letter I found and the memories of my sons. It’s my mission to share Dylan and Mason’s story, hoping it will touch the hearts of families everywhere, just as it touched mine.
