SON


Son, how much you’ve changed


From a little boy with no name…


Traveled around the world like it’s insane


Still with your real sharp eyes


Difficult times passing you by


Dealing with every situation at ease


Not in all situations were you pleased


Still turning into a little man


Only 13 and already have a plan


No matter what happens, we are by your side


Loving and caring with no surprise


And still this very day we always hope and pray


That through Gods eyes


Love and Happiness we strive!


By Roger and Birgit Pratcher

I admire Peter's description of an "old head on young shoulders". This is a great way of saying your son is wise beyond his years and you have reasons to be proud.
