I penned these words for my beautiful son just after he was born... he has just recently turned 21 and still my thoughts for him are the same...


My Son,
How beautiful you are
With your long legs and good looks
So much like your father in many ways
My love grows for you each day
So long have I waited for you to
Fulfill my life with joy and happiness
I hope that you will grow to be
strong, healthy and happy with your life
And most of all be true to yourself
And the loves that surround you
Good luck my son
As you travel this wonderous maze
Called life...

This tribute of love is absolutely beautiful.  I am so glad that you have such a person in your life -- and I bet he is as happy to have you in his.

Roniece, this is lovely, and just what I would have expected from you!

My sons are both in their 50's and to me, they are still little boys much to their chagrin!!

Beautiful!!!  

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.
