My Son's Birthday Memento

At 1-year-old, you received your first party First birthday cake, gorgeous and fancy My first ever speech to the crowd Proud as a father, I avowed At 2 years old, with chubby cheeks Full of motion of hands and feet Gathered around, relatives and friends Cheers and greetings in full length Sickly but trying to be happy at age 3 Your condition, we lifted up to God as a plea So much to be thankful to have you in our life Cheering you as the capable type Playful kid at age 4 Fond of magic, I began to explore Magic tricks to show and made you wonder At the end of my show, revealed the trick’s pointer At age five, you are lively, breathtaking chasing as you run The hide and seek game has been so much fun An avid fan of robots, a transformer is what you like Wandering around the park, you pedaled a bike My little buddy, you were amazing at age 6 Read books about animals and situation problem you fixed Asking questions was your way to communicate I am learning and still searching just to relate Made stories for you and your cousins at age 7 Even I don’t have training in writing, it enlightened Creating stories where you and your cousins are heroes It never fails to entertain, riding your dreams wherever it goes Happy birthday, now at 8 years old Wobbly upper teeth had been pulled Changes take place anytime as you grow Prepare a wish that candles are to blow April 19, 2015
