My Son

My Son

You recognize me as your mom
Your father as your dad,
As long as we are here for you
There’s no reason to be sad.

I’m so lucky to have you here
Every day I watch you grow,
You’re so dear and precious to me
Far more than you’ll ever know.

As I look upon your face
I see such innocence and beauty,
God is my witness, how blessed I am
My son, I LOVE YOU, truly.
