Little Boy Blue It’s trucks and it’s tractors Kittens and dogs Flittering butterflies Snowflakes and frogs It’s mud and it’s puddles It’s baseballs and bugs Peanut butter kisses And Teddy bear hugs A picture book story A little lost shoe A kiss and a hug And then Winne the Pooh A world made of moments A heart made of love Two eyes that are made of The blue from above The face of an angel The mind of a child The trust of a little one Tender and mild He’s everything precious The moon and the sun The gold of the earth And the hearts he has won He steps out of babyhood Into a boy And with it he thrills us With laughter and joy What shall we say to this Little Boy Blue? We’ll say Happy Birthday Today he is two Elizabeth Santos |

Liz, I love this. What a touching and sweet tribute. I am sure in the years to come, he will look at this and smile when he think of you. Excellent!! Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W. Smith |
