Happy 12th birthday to my Angel.
...a donut--his breakfast of choice-a reminder of my dad,
who always got donuts for us when they were visiting.
My sweet son...
Who stayed up much too late last night...
...and was grouchy today.
Who is a master at chess...
...and also wit-filled comebacks.
Who makes me smile when I'm having a bad day...
...and also when he's in trouble.
Who loves to cook...
...and is growing in his love for reading.
My youngest child...
Who tried his hand (or, foot) at soccer...
...and also Whiz Quiz.
Who wants a bulldog...
...and is best friends with the dog we currently have.
Who dreams of his future...
...and enjoys being a child.
Michael.
Whose name means, "Who is like God?"...
...and has the very heart of a servant.
Who is a comedian...
...and a sensitive, wise individual.
Who thinks he loves me more...
and, yet, knows better.
My very own Christmas present.
Who wouldn't fit under a tree...
...and is already taller than me.
Merry 12th Birthday!
And a Happy Christmas, too.
