My son

My son is sleeping
and God is with him
Long legs all over the bed
Big hands on the blanket
sixteen
not a boy
not a man

How can this happen?
motherhood is a mystery
and a miracle

God is painting a masterpiece
as I am watching

How very sweet.. to see the son you love, through the eyes of God. We are always our mothers son, if we are sixteen or two. Wonderful writing...Joel
