Mommys Little Thief

Mommy’s little boy By Dalene Deale-Rowe Five years ago today I’m a little ashamed to say I wasn’t in the greatest of an emotional place Or as excited as I should have been To see your beautiful face I couldn’t have anticipated The mixed feelings and fears And the complete culmination Of events that spanned over years It was harder than expected For the first couple of months But it started to change And then it was gone, All at once I remember it clearly The day we fell in love It was Christmas day you know When I realized You were a pure blessing from above Those big beautiful brown eyes And that cheeky little smile It was worth every moment Even though it took me a while Now I revel in your love Every chance I get And I thank the Lord For this Angel that five years ago I met And I soak up every moment When my favorite words you say “Mommy, You know I love you It makes me appreciate every single day Thank you for being The little heart thief that you are I pray the Lord will bless you I that you will always be my bright eyed star
