Oh my dear...where did the time go? My dear sweet boy...my easiest labor...my cutest baby...(don't tell the others)! The one who drove me crazy but then brought me flowers and melted my heart!!! You have turned out amazing...a great student, hard worker, and a fine young man. I am so very proud of you and know God is just starting on you...He has a great plan for your life...embrace it!!!
If I were a song writer this is a song I would write for my kids: (Thanks to the Sidewalk prophets for putting such beautiful words to music)
Three in the morning, And I'm still awake, So I picked up a pen and a page, And I started writing, Just what I'd say, If we were face to face, I'd tell you just what you mean to me, I'd tell you these simple truths,
Be strong in the Lord and, Never give up hope, You're going to do great things, I already know, God's got His hand on you so, Don't live life in fear, Forgive and forget, But don't forget why you're here, Take your time and pray, These are the words I would say,
Last time we spoke, You said you were hurting, And I felt your pain in my heart, I want to tell you, That I keep on praying, Love will find you where you are, I know cause I've already been there, So please hear these simple truths,
Be strong in the Lord and, Never give up hope, You're going to do great things, I already know, God's got His hand on you so, Don't live life in fear, Forgive and forget, But don't forget why you're here, Take your time and pray, These are the words I would say,
From one simple life to another, I will say, Come find peace in the Father,
Be strong in the Lord and, Never give up hope, You're going to do great things, I already know, God's got His hand on you so, Don't live life in fear, Forgive and forget, But don't forget why you're here, Take your time and pray, Thank God for each day, His love will find a way, These are the words I would say
What a great day...we love you so much. I know it has been a crazy year of transition for you. You have definitely made the best out of it. We are so proud of you. Thanks for trusting in our decisions and believing that God's Will will be done. Keep the faith and stay close to Christ!!!
