For Brandon

You came to us so quietly so sudle, with overflowing innocence such excitement in the air with thoughts of the first view of your beautiful face such eagerness in our blood to kiss your perfect forehead for the first time To picture life without you now is as impossible as digging to the center of the earth to watch you grow builds a back draft of love that consumes my heart a smile on your face put a smile on my face no matter what tribulations the day brought no matter how foul your diapers smell or how many times I have to say no its worth every breath I breathe every blink of my eyes because every ray of sunshine is on you and you are the rays of sunshine that shine upon me your my investment for better days and a reason to be here tomorrow
