Here are the touching words that Alicia Keys wrote to her five-year-old son Genesis to accompany these beautiful pictures of him that she posted on Instagram:
"My beautiful baby boy
So curious and pure
Yet SO clear about what you don’t want
'NO!' you say with vigor
When you don’t like something going on in your small but powerful 5-year-old-world
I hope that never changes
I hope that inner strength and fire
Never extinguishes
And you never feel the sway to fit in
Or be silenced
I have a STRONG feeling you won’t
That’s just not the fabric from which u came
Look at you:
Future architect, Builder, Mastermind, Wisdom keeper, Re-shaper, Change maker...
My Beautiful Baby Boy
You are unstoppable!!!
