Counting My Blessings
1. Her name is Torrie; born when I was barely twenty-one;
Making me a father when my adult life had just begun.
2. His name is Tyler; the first born of my boys;
He came into the world smiling, adding to my joys.
3. His name is Nolan; always saying the cutest things;
For the next twenty years, these were the total of my blessings.
4. He came much later, through an adoption agency;
Spencer is my last child’s name – all of them completing me.
