A Mother's Love ..For a Child So Young In Need

Tonight was my son's christmas concert and memorial for a little girl named Emily Her life was tragically taken at seven in a half years old By a highway ramp that was to short in length to emerge I was so proud of my son for ttrying and preparing himself for this evening You see the last week he has taken this hard I bought him a new suit and even let him pick out the flower he wanted to wear on his jacket A pink rose He looked so handsome and shined like the prince he is The very end there was a slideshow of Emily First picture I shedded a tear while he sat there amongst his friends sitting ever so quiet When it was finished the lights came on There he was coming to me all teary eyed All I could do was hold him so tight and share his pain I kneeled over and held him like there was no-one around us It was a moment that continued even in the car ride home This is a time in my life I could finally see he really knew what it felt like to taste the bitterness of a loss He's six years old tommorow and as he got out of the car He held his hands in the air with such hatred Begging her to come back Tell me how do I explain this to him Repeatedly saying "I miss you" I love you so much Why Emily Pretty pretty please To hear those words and see his actions of anger Is so painful I did what a mother would do I stood there with him let him vent I held him and rubbed his back We came in the house and I put his pyjamas on I tucked him into bed and held him Cried with him and comforted him I told him about the goodness she brought in this world and how God must of truly needed her I cried with him till he could'nt cry no more I was there for him and in the end he turned to me and said "I really love you" Sang him a song and hummed until he fell asleep It's time like these you the importance of loving a child to no extent God bless him and Emily's family for having the strength to carry on when they were at their weakest
