Happy Neat Sixteen Birthday

You are sixteen going on seventeen,
Caught between youth and man.
As you travel into the future
Keep the young boy if you can.

A man who has a child within
Has the time to look around.
He'll recognize the blessings
Still waiting to be found.

Devin, you've shown youself to be
A number one, first class boy.
As you journey into your manhood
I'm filled with pride and joy.

Love, Grandma
