Welcoming Our Little Ty

Welcoming Our Little Ty


We welcome in a baby boy named Ty
blessed we are, asking not why
Life precious and so very sweet
another grandson I'll soon greet

Life sends blessings as it flows
we thank God and it surely shows
A future with this child's joys
daughter now has two beautiful boys

Old age brings in surprising gifts
this blessing stands and uplifts
More time I now desperately seek
with these children so mild and meek

Praying for a life much, much longer
to see my family grow so much stronger!

Congratulations on the birth of a new grandson. May he bring much joy to your family. As his grandfather, may you be a warm, guiding influence in his life as he grows to be a man.

Thank you for the comments. I fully intend to keep him on the straight and narrow path. Should he become the kind of man my father was I'd be most proud!!
