On This Day...


Ten years ago, you came into our world.

You were yellow, but you were so beautiful.

You still are.

I love you more than you can ever know.

I wish nothing but the very best for you.

Even though we don't always see eye-to-eye, you will always be my Baby Boy.

Happy birthday, Little Man.




"Godspeed (Sweet Dreams)"
The Dixie Chicks

Dragon tales and the "water is wide"
Pirates sail and Lost Boys fly
Fish bite moonbeams every night
And I love you

Godspeed, little man
Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
Godspeed
Sweet dreams

The rocket racer's all tuckered out
Superman's in pajamas on the couch
Goodnight moon will find the mouse
And I love you

Godspeed, little man
Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
Godspeed
Sweet dreams

God bless mommy and match box cars
God bless dad and thanks for the stars
God hears "Amen," wherever we are
And I love you

Godspeed, little man
Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Sweet dreams

  2. Thank you, Mary. That's very kind of you.

    I showed him what I wrote and he got all embarrassed. He said, "mum, now everyone will know who I am!" I told him that he is not yellow or tiny anymore and it's very unlikely anyone would pick him out in a crowd by that photo! How sweet.

    I always choke up when I listen to that song, too. I plan to use it as our mother-and-son dance if he gets married one day :)

  3. Hi Dear, Happy Birthday, Little Man. Wonderful tribute, love the lyrics, don't think I have heard that song sung yet. Will have to look around for it. Hope little man had an amazing day. Will catch up with you all soon. Cheers, Deb
