What more can a mother ask for?

I don't post often about my son Ryan. Since we are so focused on the adoption process, I tend to use this blog for that reason. I had to share what my son wrote for a "Bio Poem" at school the other day. You see, this is the first year that we put Ryan into the public school. He has been at a smaller Christian School since Kindergarten and he really felt led to spread his wings this year and wanted to start Middle School in 7th grade! We were hesitant, but with a paper like this, we know where his heart is and we could not be prouder to have him as a son! He is the best big brother, watches Mya when ever needed, without complaining. Never hesitates to change a poo-poo diaper and recently learned how to make Mac N Cheese! But this Poem touched my heart and I will remember it forever. So even though he is now attending the Public School, he is not afraid to say what he believes:

RYAN
FUN, MUSICAL,FAITHFUL
SON OF CHAD AND MARY
LOVER OF GUITAR, FAMILY AND GOD
WHO FEELS LOVED, ENCOURAGED, AND LOVED BY
GOD
WHO NEEDS JESUS, FAMILY AND FRIENDS
WHO GIVES ENCOURAGEMENT, HAPPINESS AND A
SMILE
WHO FEARS GOD, SPIDERS, AND BEING ALONE
WHO WOULD LIKE TO SEE GERMANY,
THE EIFFEL TOWER, AND AUSTRALIA
RESIDENT OF HARTVILLE, OHIO
HECKY

He could not understand why I was crying after I read this. They were tears of joy!
