On June 22...



On this day 36 years ago--
God gave breathing lungs...to the man I love...

On this day 14 years ago--
We were wading-deep...in new marriage love.

On this day 7 years ago--
We were thankful-full...brim-full with three little ones to love...

On this day 3 years ago--
We were clinging-tight...grieving our fourth child so deeply loved.

On this day 2 years ago--
This very day...
We were listening by phone...to the newborn cries...
Of our baby so-wanted-in-love.

And today.
On this day...
The love spills over...


For this man, united in love.
For this child, given-received in love.
For my God...the source of love.

And so I say...
with thankfulness in my heart to God...

Happy Birthday Jason and Lydia!
On this day...
Please know that--
You are both so very loved.
