Happy Birthday Isaac!
Dear Isaac,
Five years ago today I met you for the first time. From that day until today I have been
surprised over and over by how much love I could feel when I look at you. When the doctors put you in my arms, my
cheeks actually started to cramp from smiling. When I go into your room at night and see you sleeping, or
watch you focus so intently as you build another amazing tower, or when I see
you grabbing Lily’s hand as you head into a new group together; I am struck all
over again by the beauty of who you are and who you are becoming.
Five years ago today, I couldn’t imagine a little boy named
Isaac Orr. I couldn’t imagine a
blonde floppy haired boy that would make laugh at his witty little
comments. I couldn’t imagine a boy
with such a sensitive and tender heart but the spirit of a warrior. I couldn’t imagine your lanky arms and
legs running down the street. I
couldn’t imagine your little
charming way and how you would make people smile. I couldn’t imagine the way that you would love and take care
of your little sister.
Five years ago today, I held my first baby in my arms. I stared at you for hours and
hours. I had never felt the kind
of love in my heart that I felt when I looked at your sweet little face. I can’t believe that it has been five
years. It’s hard to imagine life
without you. You are truly a gift
from God; one of the greatest gifts I have ever been given. I celebrate you today my son, Isaac
Daniel Orr. I thank God for making
you and for blessing my life with you.
I rejoice in who you are my son.
I love you!
Love - Mommy
