My Son

I don’t know how far you are right now or whether you have even been born but I see you in my dreams each night.

I can’t feel you grow within me or sense your heart beats but my heart is overwhelmed each time the thought of you crosses my mind.

I have no idea what you look like but I know when I see you it will truly be love at first sight.

I will never know your mother but I pray for her every day and thank God for her every moment.

I have never even seen you but you will fill the hole in my heart that I never knew ex

isted.

I wait for the day that I can hold you in my arms for I truly believe it will be the most beautiful day of my life.

I look forward to the day I can bring you home and lay you in your bed and know that you will be mine forever.

I yearn for a chance to sing to you and talk to you and show you my world, I can only imagine how much brighter it will be with you in it.

I count the days until I can hold your hands and kiss your cheeks and hold you tight and love you and protect you.

I pray that time might move faster so that you are here,

Where God has destined you to be,

At Home …….

So that I may call you my very own…..

My child……

My Son!
