Willem Emmett.
I don't think he even knows his first name is Willem.
The week he was born we called him Willem, but it was wrong. The name was a stranger to him.
He's Emmett.
The origin meaning of the name Emmett means, "All Containing; Universal; Strong."
And he came that way.
He is a sort of renaissance man boy.
His interests, his personalities, his temperaments are"All containing".
Like how he's obsessed with all sports that involve a ball, but will sing and dance his way between the bases. He will "read" his books late into the night and then construct intricate cities and
roadways with his train tracks.
He's stubborn; he'll act tougher than nails, even amoral at times, but in a instant he'll break, and before I know it he is smothering me with love.
He doesn't fit a mold. He is every mold.
He is the most passionate and enthusiastic, not to mention, dramatic, person I've ever met!
Oh, and his rampant imagination; everything is an adventure!
He has an intense zeal for life.
No day is ever dull or meaningless with Emmett.
I'll be frank, I am wasted at the end of every day.
He keeps us all going full speed, 100% of the time.
But I know this small body houses a firm soul.
He is no fence-sitter; rather a force: "strong"...let's all hope a force for the good!
p.s. Melt.
