Our little boy Nicholas, sleeping beside mommy

Was just waking up to play

You couldn't wake your mommy up you said

On that very dreadful day

You were with her alone at home

A debt no child should have to pay

I wish that I could have been there

before they carried your mommy away

Every morning now when he gets up

he has the same words to say

"Dad, I know you miss mom, I miss her too,

but it will be okay!"

This victorious child is my rock

He gets me through each day

He even asks "If mommy's an angel then,

why did she fly away?"

I swoop him up and into my arms

and give him hugs and kisses.

I know that I have my work cut out for me

It's his mommy that he misses

Some days I’m perfectly fine, but others I can’t walk down the street without crying. I keep thinking that I haven’t talked to her in a while & I…See More
