~ A CHILD of GOD ~ Courtney is a special girl Especially to her mother A young lady now, But always a child For she is like no other She's a child of God, Who does not speak But happy all the while Church is where she comes alive Here, her spirit Does soar and thrive As the choir Begins to sing She makes a joyful sound And there are smiles All around To the congregation, Her special ways are known They lovingly embrace her, As one of their own One Sunday, Much to her mother's surprise A small miracle occurred, That brought tears to her eyes Courtney threw up her arms And embraced her mother A rare gift - A Hug! The congregation sighed At this precious wonder This was special, In so many ways For it wasn't just Sunday It was, MOTHER'S DAY!! |

A special embrace whatever the day or place.  Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |

Thanks everyone for reading. This was a true story about my sister and her special needs daughter. I gave my sister this poem for her birthday which was close to Mothers Day. She cried. Kat |
