A little while ago You raised your tiny head And smiled at me For the first time And I smiled back with tears I loved you so much then Though you've grown a little older And have begun to live your dreams And to pursue your own goals I still look to your beautiful smile To know things are all right with you And I am so very proud of you And I love you even more now If that is even possible You will never leave my heart And you will always be My perfect little boy.... I love you, Mom when he had gone to his Dad's for the weekend a couple of months before the accident. I stayed up half the night writing it, and I don't even know why it was so important to me at the time... He got home and said to me, "I got the poem you wrote for me Mom, And I liked it a lot. Thanks." I am so glad I took the time to say these things to my son. I am so glad he acknowledged them to me and I know he read them And knew how much I love him, in spite of the fact that I told him and showed him daily. Every night when he went to bed, I told him. He would always say the same thing to me every night "Goodnight Mom. You are the best Mommy in the whole wide world, and I love you." What a gift and comfort this poem and his words have been to me.....    |
