33 years ago...
A baby was born.
A child with whom brought such joy and happiness.
A baby boy!
Through the years he grew, he learned to do all the things a child will.
He walked, he talked, he opened his tiny arms to give and receive love.
His piercing blue eyes drank in all of the world.
The youngest child, and the only boy his journey was not always easy-
but he grew into a wonderful man
A man a girl fell in love with
The kind of man, that could share that same kind of love shown to him
with another baby boy
not of his own flesh
but loved just the same
He held the child with tender and compassionate arms
breathed words of love and acceptance into the tiny boy
and together they grew
and then another boy was born
so many like features
he too was loved with fierce pride
and again the man grew
The journey always true to its word grew more and more difficult
it would have broken a lesser man
but with faith and love in his heart
the man grew again
Grew so tall the girl could barely recognize the boy
so she grew too....
33 years ago my best friend was born.
Happy Birthday David
