Your son was one of the first I noticed when I joined soup. I like his writing, but what impressed me most was his kind and caring essence that has remained unchanged. Your poem - how true.

He is an entity on his own I can take no credit for who he is as he accomplished it all on his own. Family may have helped but he is amazing. thanks for the visit Hugs Edith
