A Spring Time Wish
I'm going to make a wish today.
It's for my 5 month old birth son.
I know that spring is here & the sun is shining.
There's so many things to do,
so many things for his new eyes to see.
My wish is for his mom to pick a flower& hold it up to his nose so he can smell what God has made for us to enjoy.
I wish that dad will take him to his favorite icecream shop so he can taste his first taste of chocholate.
I wish that mom will sit him in the grass his big yard so he can feel mother earth & see how beautiful the color green can be.
I wish that big brother will hand him a shovel & teach him how to dig in his sand box.
I wish that there will be many strolls to Grandmas house so he can feel the warmth of the sun on his chubby cheeks.
I wish that Grandpa will play with him in their pool & bounce him up & down in the water to make him giggle.
I wish that he will get to see a butterfly land nearby & mom will let him help plant seeds for their garden.
I wish that she will add some pretty flowers so that he can look at them & understand that there are beautiful colors wich only God could create.
I wish & know that he will have a wonderful first spring so full of everything that every child deserves.
Thank you to my birth sons parents.Thank you to every person on these adoption boards.You all have been such a great help.
When your precious child comes to you will you plant a patch of flowers & every so often pick one for him to touch & smell?
When he does,can you think of us birth mothers?
Happy spring time to you all.
