No amount of gold could ever compare to the gift of love that my son shares.
I've been blind and I couldn't see that all the love I've wanted is right here in front of me.
He gives me reason to get through another day.
Maybe it's how he loves me in his special little way.
And when it gets hard for me to sleep at night....
He wraps his little arms around me and says God will make things right!
From sweet gentle touches to his bear hugs and a kiss...
He makes this hell on earth seem more like a peaceful bliss.
That great big kool-aid smile and the twinkle in his eyes....
Every time I look at him it makes me want to cry.
But they're not tears of sorrow; they're tears of pride and joy....
To know that all the love in heaven is wrapped around my little boy.

A newborn in my life that God has chosen for me! Oh my God a 7lb 3 once bundle of joy, this child, this blessing that the Lord has sent to me! The most precious of time, sleeping on my shoulder, snoring. occasionally, wiggle, a precious grin, I know wasn't for me, but for the angels you were playing with, though the precious smile I was so proud to see. I'm honored to have watched you grow, from that perfect baby, toddler, little boy, teen and now a man, you have brought much focus into my life. I was once told it was you and I, we helped each other to grow! You came to me in unsettling times in your life. You will need love, security, direction and God. I not Mom but of all things a single grandpa at 45! I played the part of mom, Dad, caregiver and friend. Now you my SON has grown, I miss so much that little boy. God and I did a great job! To raise a child, one day, when you become a Dad, you'll be great! God and me know it.
