To day is my sons birthday, A.J. will be 19 I should not be telling the world how OLD I am but he is so very precious to me and I always have him in my heart, Happy Birthday son I love so very much, Mom Chase The Stars My eyes did see you as a babe, but a young man you are. Across the many sunsets you have come gaining strength and wisdom for all to see. Your challenges have been many, you concord them all. You placed gleam upon my eyes, and laughter among my breaths. I wish a star for you to ride and gale winds upon your back, for I know you will go far, and many trails you will blaze. I have not the strength to follow you well, but upon my mind you will always dwell. You can come back to me with all of your tales to tell. Keep your sights among the stars for they shine brightest and will take you far. My love will be with you both day and night and forever more my only son.

Cerenity... Thank you for sharing your happiness in this lovely poem.....I know your son is proud of you, too!! Even though we haven't met, wish him Happy Birthday from me.....sometimes it's special coming from a complete stranger!!! Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Hi Everyone, I wanted to say thank you for your lovely thoughts, I carried this child for six weeks past his time of arrival, he started eating cereal at three days old and started all of the boy stuff VERY early, he has for sure kept me on my toes but I am very proud of him, once again thank you for your loving remarks.

With wishes from his mom like this how could he not travel among the stars. Heck, he will probably wrap one up for you and give it to you for Mother's Day. Very beautiful poem. |

What a fitting title for such a lovely gift to your son, Cerenity. This is wonderful, and makes obvious the bond you have with him. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Hi Everyone, You all are so very sweet, I can't thank you enough for the beautiful thoughts, and I want all who replyed to this poem to know that I read all of your wonderful words to my son over the phone and he was almost in tears, he had no idea what kind of site this was or how it worked and I have been trying to get him to do a prose, he can write storys like you would not believe he is trully a natureal I am hoping some day though, I thank you all so very much and so does he. Love, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist. We have to be reminded that He exist!" (Writer Unknown) |

so beautiful and so hard I know to write for I have a daughter that is 19, and tears come to my eyes when I'm writing for her. Children are truly one of God's greatest gifts. It seems they grow so quickly and then are all grown up sometimes I'm simply amazed looking at mine. Happy birthday to your son. |
