CO - chapter two - To Jackson


A tiny hand to kiss again,
To open, and cover with love.
Little neck, soft, tender
Casts me to another place and time.





Trust filled eyes, open wide
Curious, new world unfolding.
Show me, teach me,
Help me learn.





Perfect little soul
Wrapped in apricot skin.
New life daily unfolds
In minutes, hours, deliciously embraced.





Stay small my new heart.
Boldly explore and know
You are God’s child.
Mommy’s treasure, Daddy’s delight.





In your splendor, angel kissed.
Gramma’s joy, Grampa’s future
Purest gift, Noble prince.
Purest Gift.








Love you baby!

I'm happy to finally see Heavenly being Holmes up and running. There are only a small number of people in this world that have the gift of being able to make everyone they come in contact with feel loved! I am grateful to have been one of those lucky souls! Congrats on the new addition!

So adorable! I'm glad you were able to go for a visit. Jackson is getting big fast! Where did he get that red hair from?? I love it!

I love it mom! Did you write that? I might be copying that and putting it in his scrapbook.

Oh and by the way, I just re-did his front page of the scrapbook. April 15, 2007... OOOPS!
