In past I've talked about my son.
The funny things he's said and done.
And as the years keep passing by.
Amazes me, this little guy.

The way he thinks, the things he'll say.
Surprising me most everyday.
I wish I could put into words.
The things he's said, the things I've heard.

For School clothes we went to the mall.
And teasing him for being small.
You won't believe what he then said.
Just know it turned my face bright red.

When he made note of his big feet.
I know I near fell off my seat.
Then bracing for the shock of shocks.
He said, "Big feet, wear great big socks!"

When he was small we played a game.
Each freckle kissed, then got a name.
Last week he said, "Hey mom, guess what?"
"I've got a freckle on my butt."

Main source of laughter, thats my Son.
To keep me laughing, he's the one.
He's the "Son" that lights my way.
I wonder what he'll say today.


Remember me with a smile on your face, or please don't remember me at all.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.
