On August 19--not 18--2010 you were born
And you defied everything that the doctor’s had sworn
They had told us you may have some things wrong with you
But God had other plans; this we always knew
You were perfect, and our biggest baby to boot.
With brown hair and brown eyes, you were oh so cute
You completed our family, and a party of five we became
And without you, our lives would not be the same
You are such a fun kid who loves the outdoors
And you keep us laughing- you’re never a bore
You love to play in your fort, the woods, and the creek
And when you find bones, into the house with them you sneak
You have your own chickens and sell their eggs for money
You’ve also made some selling Gushers fruit gummies
You’re the best helper and always willing to lend a hand
When we ask you to do something, we don’t have to demand
Staples is your nickname for such a good reason
You seem to get hurt with just about every single season
Cutting off your finger caused your momma to have some PTSD
But I love your story of how it was bit off by a shark in the sea
You know the Bible and love God and Jesus a lot
Last summer, you were baptized and much joy to us that brought
It’s hard to believe you’re double digits and in grade 4
Our pride and love for you will always grow and soar
Enjoy your week as the star student of the class
The fun you have in elementary school is hard to surpass!
Love you bunches,
Mom and Dad 8-30-2020
