My Future Son

God knew in my heart that I wanted a son; but, child bearing years..brought me none.

I was incomplete until I met you; then, there you were..with eyes so blue.

With light blonde hair..and only nine months old; I held you tight..and wouldn’t let go.

I smiled at you, you smiled back at me; I knew right then..this had to be.

My blessing from God..sent down to earth; but, not in the form..of an Adkins' birth.

But, that’s alright, yes, that’s ok; I guess it was meant..to be this way.

My heart is filled with so much joy; for now I have..a baby boy.

I look at you, I feel complete, I testify..to all I meet; that God is good, God is great, always on time, and never late.

From years of tears..and prayers too; now giggles and babbles..I hear from you.

When this is finished, when this is done, you will be..our forever son.

Not flesh of my flesh, nor bone of my bone; but, conceived in my heart..and forever a home.

Don’t ever be sad, don’t ever be blue; for we as well..are adopted too.

But, not by man..down here on earth; only through Jesus..at our new birth.

Love,

Mommy
