now we are six.

Wasn't it just yesterday
That I went to see you in the hospital?
Tiny fingers and tiny nose.
But now you are six.
Two hands to show your age,
Much bigger now,
But yet to grow.
So keep at it,
You have great things ahead.
And I pray with my whole heart,
That you will never lose sight
Of your Father above,
Who loves you and cares about you.
Right this moment though?
You blow out those candles.

  1. So sweet :) Sometimes I wish I had a little brother or sister (I'm the youngest).

  2. Did you write that poem? So beautiful! I love that little marker of now needing two hands to show his age. Wow. I need a lot of hands to show my age! This year I will need exactly 8, next year I'll start to need 9! :-) Your blog is so encouraging, thank you!
