My baby boy Andrew turned 9 years old on Friday. I can't believe how fast these years have flown by. I am so proud of the amazing boy he has become. I can't help but being a little sad though. I wish I could keep him with me forever...I love him so much my heart aches...

Every time I look at you

I say a silent prayer

That every time you need me

God help me to be there...

I ask you to forgive me son

If I fail you now and then

For I will keep trying, my son

Until the very end...

I ask you now, forgive me son

If I'm a little overprotective too

For I really mean no harm, my son

I simply am in love with you...

I know you must let you stumble, my son

Learn to stand on your own two feet

For I know someday you'll have to stand strong

Against the difficulties you will meet...

Be careful of this world, my son

For it can be dark and cold

But as long as keep your faith in God

You'll have riches and treasures untold...

I hate to see you pained, my son

I hate to see you cry

I hate to see you hurt

And for this i would rather die...

So if things get to hard, my son

And it's dark and you cannot see

I will be your light

You can always depend on me...
