Unexpected

I woke up to this little treasure a few weeks ago.


You're Strong

Every morning you get up even though your 
body yearns for more rest.
 You make sure that I get to school,
and that I get their "handsomely" dressed.

In the evening, even though you're tired
and even when you're sore,
You most always make dinner for at least six people
sometimes even more.

If it weren't for you, I'd be tired at school,
Because you make sure going to bed is a rule.

Theses are just a few examples,
things that I could make rhyme,
But just remember you're strong and bold, 
and loving all of the time.

 - You're Loving Son

Thank you Brock for such a sweet poem. 

He has no idea how many times I get the folded paper out and read it.  It makes my heart melt.  He knows how hard my days can be.  He is constantly watching me to make sure I am okay.  When I am in tears, feeling like I just can't do another day, I hear his words and they give me courage.  I remember why I get out of bed, get dressed, and be the best I can be.  We are only required to do our best.  His words make me a little better everyday.
