My Nephew

Joshua Mason, my nephew, was born with OI and he is still here. When he was born things weren't good and my eyes were full of tears. So far he has made it 3 weeks and one day, I know he is really strong and he will make it all the way. He is still at Children's Mercy so I don't see him as much as I want to, I wish I could see him everyday, but it is just too hard to do. When I see him I don't get to hold him like I wish, But it makes me happy when I talk to him and I give him a kiss. When he was almost 2 weeks old he smiled when I read him a book. Oh how I will remember that cute little look. I hope he gets to come home within the next few weeks, So I can hold him and play with his chubby little cheeks. When I am not with him I hope he knows that I love him, And that I am always thinking of him and praying for him. When I can I will hold him and let him see, How much he really means to me.
