How God Made Little Boys
(Name)
He took some jam,
and some apple pies,
He mixed in freckles,
put twinkles in the eyes.
He mussed up the hair
and scuffed the knees,
Created a desire
for climbing trees.
Spirit, fun, courage, heart…
The need to explore,
He added these items…
and so much more.
When He was done,
He rested with joy.
For there before Him
was the wonder of a Boy.

Such happiness and joy
All because you are such

My Middle Child
(Name)
Not the oldest, not the youngest
But somewhere in between
A middle child can sometimes be lost
Amid lifes daily routine
You never got to be the first
At any new stage
Nor the last to treasure
A final special age
"Time for bed, you little ones"
Always included you
But "older children, clean the dishes"
Meant middle children too!
I want to say I am proud of you,
You have made my life a treat
For without the middle child,
A family would not be complete
You are the precious balance
Between growing up and youth
You teach us about compromise
And seeking the truth
At times it is hard to let you go,
To cut the apron strings
For the future is uncertain,
But whatever tomorrow brings
You will face each new challenge
But, I want you to know
Your place in my heart
Is steady and true
And will never cease to grow

My Youngest Child
(Their Name)
I thought I had things figured out
By the time you came along
But being a parent one more time
Proved to me that I was wrong
I thought I had seen it all
There was nothing more to know
How could I imagine the joy I would find
Watching another life grow?
Not my first child, I naively thought
There would be nothing new
But you made each stage exciting again
And all uniquely "you"
"The older kids have more fun!"
You would cry, so anxious to be grown
But soon you would be playing again
In a make-believe world of your own
Each milestone you awaited
With anticipation very great
Oh, to drive a car, stay out past ten
And finally graduate!
But the days you thought just dawdled
Have been quick to disappear
And regardless of your age,
There is one more thing to make clear
Though you will always be my baby
Who brought me joy, laughter and fun
You are an even greater treasure now,
And I am proud of all you have become

Mom / Dad or Both

The Little Artist
(Their Name)
It takes a certain wisdom
to help a child to grow
There are times we want
to intervene and let
adult “know how” show
For a child the worlds
a delightful test.
At times they struggle,
at times make a mess.
If we love them, guide them
and let them be,
We nurture individuality.
Life is like an empty canvas,
so vast and so grand.
We must supply
our children the paintbrush,
but we should not move their hand.
We/I love you,

My Only Child
(Their Name)
On the day you were born,
my life was changed completely.
How could one tiny child transform my world
oh, so sweetly?
You brought back my childhood,
brought out the child in me
and gave me fresh perspective
on lifes priorities.
The world became brand new again
as I saw it through your eye
and I learned to value each new day
as a gift full of surprise.
I know the life of an only child
is not always filled with ease.
You have had no one to borrow from,
share secrets with, or tease;
and yet, no matter what life brings,
you take it all in stride.
The strength of character you show
fills my heart with pride.
I never knew just how much love
a child would stir in me,
but in his grace the father saw
and recognized my need.
For I was given just a taste
of perfect love, it is true,
when God in all his mercy,
chose to bless my life with you.

You Are Loved
(Name)
There were two special women,
They never knew each other.
One you don not remember,
The other you call mother.
Two very different lives
Together made yours one,
The first one like a shooting star,
The other like the sun.
One gave to you the gift of life,
One showed you how to live it.
The first one gave a need for love,
The second was there to give it.
One gave you roots of heritage,
The other your good name.
One gave you seeds of talent,
The other gave you aim.
One gave to you emotions;
The other calmed your fears.
One saw your first endearing smile,
The other dried your tears.
The first one had to give you up,
It was all that she could do.
The other prayed for her own child
And then found you.
I hope you see my precious child,
That you are the product of,
Not just one but two hearts,
With different kinds of love.

To My Son, (Their Name)
I was so busy through the day,
I did not take the time to play.
when you brought your games to me,
I told you “Not now,” and quietly,
I cleaned the house, I would iron and cook
but when you would bring your story book,
And ask me to sit and read to you,
I would say, “I have to much to do.”
I would tuck you in your bed at night,
you would say your prayers, I would dim the light
Too quickly I would pass through the door,
I should have stayed a minute more.
Lifes much too short, each year flies past,
my little boy grew up so fast.
No longer playing by my side,
for me to nurture and to guide.
The books and toys are packed away,
no longer are there games to play.
No precious bedtime prayers to hear,
that all belongs to yester-year
My days once busy now are calm,
the hours empty and too long.
I wish I could go back and do,
all the things you asked me to do.

My Son
(Name)
Life is fleeting, years rush past…
and little boys grow up so fast.
Let me take time out to be
thankful mine is still here with me.
And though I am busy through the day,
let me take the time to play…
Let me take the time out to smile,
to sit with him just for a while…
Let me take time out for walks,
for swings and sports and quiet talks.
For sharing giggles, tickles and hugs,
for patching knees and catching bugs.
For running races, climbing trees,
for helping with his A, B, Cs…
For hatching plots and planning schemes,
for listening to his thoughts and dreams.
Let me tuck him in at night,
hear his prayers, turn off the light.
And when my busy day is done,
let me thank God I have a son.

Special Gift
(Name)
You got it from your father
A gift he was so proud to give
So it is yours to use and cherish
For as long as you may live
If you lose a gift he bought you
It can always be replaced
But a blemish on your name, son
Can never be erased
It was clean the day you took it
A worthy name to bear
When he got it from his father
There was no dishonor there
So make sure you guard it wisely
After all is said and done
You will be proud your name is spotless
When you give it to your son
I am proud of you,

Sometime we need reminders in our lives
Of how much others care
If you ever get that feeling
I want you to remember this ...
I love you, son
Beyond words that can even begin
To tell you how much
I hold you and your happiness
Within my heart each and every day
I am so proud of you
And so thankful to the years
That have given me so much
To be thankful for
Before you were born I had
An ideal description in my mind of
The qualities and characteristics
I would love to have in a son
And you have become every bit and more!
There is no one in the whole world
I would rather have as my son

My Dear Son
(Name)
While you were just a small boy
I held your little hand
I answered all those many questions
Of sky and sea and land
I kissed away your hurts
As only a mother can
I gladly accepted each cherished hug
With small arms holding tight
For I knew the time drew nearer
With every passing night
You are no longer my little boy
Instead you are a grown man
But I will always hold you in my heart
Though I can no longer hold your hand

Son
(Name)
I think a lot about the past when
you were little and you would run and play.
I think about balls and bats and
tiny automobiles that somehow
never got put away.
I think about knees I kissed and shoes
I tied and the bicycle you finally
learned to ride.
But mostly I think about a little face
that smiled up at me at the end of the
day and little arms held up so high
to wrap around me and say goodnight.
I miss those days very much but they
are alive in memory, and
I am so proud today of the man
you have come to be.

My Perfect Child
(Name)
As my children were born,
I wanted them to be perfect.
When they were babies, I wanted them to smile
and to be content playing with their toys.
I wanted them to be happy and to laugh continually
instead of crying and being demanding.
I wanted them to see the beautiful side of life.
As they grew older, I wanted them
to be giving instead of selfish.
I wanted them to skip the terrible twos.
I wanted them to stay innocent forever.
As they became teenagers, I wanted them to be
obedient and not rebellious,
mannerly and not mouthy.
I wanted them to be gentle,
kindhearted, and full of love.
Oh, God, give me a child like this,
was often my prayer.
One day he did.
Some call him handicapped...
I call him perfect!
I love you my perfect child,
