Patricks' First Christmas

Oh my beloved son. How much joy it brings me when I see you smile. Here you are opening your first Christmas gift. I wish you were old enough to enjoy it as much as I want you too. You bring more pleasure into you mothers and my life than we ever could imagine feeling. thank you Father for giving me my son!!

It is such an awe inspiring moment when you look at me this way!! I can never understand how I even speak to you. You are so beautiful! My heart just melts with pride when I look into you eyes. I pray everyday for the right words to teach you the way God wants me to. I want to bring you up to know him and the joy that comes from feeling and knowing the love He has for us. He looks on me the way I look upon you, Oh what a joy it is to serve Him. I Love you Son!
