On June 22…

On this day 36 years ago–
God gave breathing lungs…to the man I love…

On this day 14 years ago–
We were wading-deep…in new marriage love.

On this day 7 years ago–
We were thankful-full…brim-full with three little ones to love…

On this day 3 years ago–
We were clinging-tight…grieving our fourth child so deeply loved.

On this day 2 years ago–
This very day
We were listening by phone…to the newborn cries…
Of our baby so-wanted-in-love.

And today.
On this day…
The love spills over…

For this man, united in love.
For this child, given-received in love.
For my God…the source of love.

And so I say…
with thankfulness in my heart to God…

Happy Birthday Jason and Lydia!
On this day…
Please know that–
You are both so very loved.
