My son, I love you and I miss you so much!

 

In my son's eyes

Author: Martina McBride

In my son's eyes, I am a hero.
I am strong an' wise,
And I know no fear.
But the truth is plain to see:
He was sent to rescue me,
I see who I want to be, in my son's eyes.

In my son's eyes, everyone is equal,
Darkness turns to light,
And the world is at peace.
This miracle God gave to me,
Gives me strength when I am weak.
I find reason to believe, in my son's eyes.

And when he wraps his hand around my finger,
Oh, it puts a smile in my heart.
Everything becomes a little clearer.
I realize what life is all about.
It's hanging on when your heart has had enough;
It's giving more when you feel like giving up.
I've seen the light: it's in my son's eyes.

In my son's eyes, I can see the future.
A reflection of who I am,
And what will be.
And though he'll grow and, some day, leave:
Maybe raise a family,
When I'm gone, I hope you'll see,
How happy he made me,
For I'll be there, in my son's eyes.

If a Dog Had Been Your Teacher...

If a Dog Had Been Your Teacher

If a dog had been your teacher, you would:

Always run to greet loved ones when they came home.

Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.

Enjoy the simple experience of fresh air and the wind in your face.

Practice obedience.

Let others know when they’ve invaded your territory.

Take naps.

Stretch before rising.

Run, romp and play daily.

Enjoy attention and affection.

Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.

Lie on your back on the grass.

On hot day, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.

When you’re happy, dance around and wag your entire body.

No matter how often you’re scolded, don’t buy in to guilt,
run right back and make friends.

Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.

Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.

Stop when you have had enough.

Be loyal.

Never pretend to be something you’re not.

And, if what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.

And when someone is having a bad day,
be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.
