Now Our Grown Man
        But Always Our Son
    Written By (Rose Marie Rideout)

It wasn’t that long ago,
When you were just a little child,
You had that certain way dear,
To always share a special smile.
You were a precious gift,
Sent to us from God above,
Here thirty-seven years later,
You’re still a blessing filled with love.

How I remember that day well,
The tears i shed for such a joy.
To know that we were blessed,
Well a beautiful healthy baby boy.
Today you are all grown,
With four children of your own,
I still see you as my infant,
Now a man left to roam.

I still see that little sparkle,
The love you have to share.
You’ll never know how much,
I love you please know we’ll always care.
For you are still as special,
As you were from day one.
You’ll always have that sparkle,
Our grown man but always our precious son.
