Our Blessing

There is no greater blessing in life than 
understanding from someone who cares for you
Someone who is slow to criticize yet quick 
to offer support when times are tough
And because of this I know you love me 
and our trust be everlasting...
My disappointments turn into my greatest achievements
because I feel the need to celebrate you 
and all you are to me...
And while we may not understand it all and why things 
happen as they do,
Always know that I will be here as long as you need me
And my heart and thoughts will be with you 
long after I'm gone,
Take this comfort in knowing you will never 
have more than you can handle,
For I am with you always, now and forever.
