A letter to Joshua

Our youngest son is finishing college classes and moving on to pursue his dreams.  As I bid him farewell:

Graduate,

I watched you from a baby grow,

And oh, how I loved you so,

You started to walk, talk then run,

Growing up was lots of fun,

Then kindergarten, reading and writing,

Fifth, eighth and twelfth grades flashed like lightning,

Next thing I knew, you were taller than me,

But I always knew that you would be,

You were driving a car and commuting to college,

Acquiring good grades and loads of knowledge,

Now the college years are almost through,

You have brand new dreams to pursue,

I’ll miss you dearly as I watch you go,

And oh, I still love you so.

Mom
