| Your Child, God's Blessing
I watched you as your nursed your newborn son And snuggled him close to you. He was not the "perfect" child you planned What had God given you? Where was the child that you dreamed of? And what would happen to your dreams for him? How does God choose the child for parents That He would send to them? Perhaps God looked into your heart And saw something good and true And knew that his beloved treasure Would be safe with you. We teach our children daily All the things they need to know But sometimes it takes a special child To help us really grow. A special child can teach us so much And God counts them jewels in His plan And only when you've been blessed by one Can you begin to understand. I believe that in God's plan He searched the whole earth through To find the perfect parents for this child And decided to bless you. Thena

| A Prayer for My Special Child
Father, it is to you I humbly come To thank you for my little one. To others he may seem to have defects odd But I realize that he is a gift from God. If only part of this little one Could be a replica of God's Son I would not choose that outer part But pray instead for a perfect heart. I thank you for this special treasure That you have sent our way And ask that around this little one You station Your guardian angels every day. I know that he may have some trials And many struggles to overcome But I trust in your Dear God To carry him through each one. I confess that this is not the baby I pictured That perfect baby that I had in my mind But I will not worry or try to second guess The hand of the Divine. So I lift him up to You Dear Lord And ask that every day You touch and bless and comfort For it is in Jesus' Name I pray. Thena

| I see pure joy in you every day As you go about your sweet unassuming way. Seeking naught but to love us Such a precious angel you are You are one in a million Our tiny little shinning star. You light up the room with your presence And chase away any fear or doubt You hold in your loving acceptance The meaning to what life is all about. Unwavering in your loyalty and devotion You hold out your hands to touch each face That holds for you a special meaning And then wrap your arms around us in sweet embrace. You have taught me more Than you could ever know As I watch you live and love and grow And because of your pure and tender heart At the end of my life's journey I shall be a better person Than I was at my journey's start.

| Subject: My World is Different Thu Mar 01, 2012 2:20 pm | |
| My world is different My view is from down low I see things from a different perspective Everywhere I go. I see things while I'm sitting down Or when I'm lying prone But my heart sings and I have wings When I'm all by myself alone. In my imagination I run and skip And see the world as you do But during my waking hours My legs restrict my view. I'd like to see the world From a taller and sturdier frame And perhaps hear a softball coach Call on me by name. I'd like to stand on tippy toe And perhaps someday I will But for now I peek through life's bars And view things while seated, still. But my view is filled with awesome things That sometimes you may not see For sometimes a lower viewing spot Is a very good place to be. I love my view and love my world And each day it will get better For having family that loves me so much Is what really truly matters! Thena
