Today is Josiah's 3rd birthday and all though we can't be with him to celebrate, we will be there in 12 days. This will be the last birthday he will spend without us.
I thought for his birthday I would share the poem I wrote for him back in a the spring. we love you little guy and we will be there soon
Little boy do you know
how much I already love you, how I look at your picture and long to hold you, long to kiss your sweet face and rub your fuzzy little head?
Little boy do you know
how I think of you in everything I do wondering what you are doing, if you are safe, how you are feeling, if someone is comforting you when you cry?
Little boy do you know
that God put you in my heart and I already love you as if you were growing in my tummy, how I hate the idea of you learning and doing all of your firsts without me,first smile,first tooth,first step,first word?
Little boy do you know
you have sisters and brothers that are waiting for you to come play with them, a daddy that is waiting to tickle your toes and kiss your forehead and teach you to play ball?
Little boy do you know
how many people are praying for you each day,you are special and loved?
Little boy do you know
how hard we are working to bring you home,that God loves you and will be with you no matter what and that he is bringing us to you?
Little boy do you know
I love you?
