As you know,
Sacha celebrated
his 2nd birthday on December 19th, 2004. To mark the occasion, we
had a small birthday party at our home with a few close friends.
It was nice to celebrate
our little
angel being with us for a second year. Although this second year
has been at times a bumpy one, we are still so thrilled to have
Sacha with us as he brings much light and happiness to our family.
Sacha's babysitter,
Pauline, included
a lovely poem with her gift that was very fitting, and sums up very
well
how we felt on this special day.
A Birthday Prayer
by Judith Dekker
Birthdays are
blessings
As seen through God's
eyes.
In the light of forever
We soon realize
That birthdays are given
to prompt us to pause
And assess what is
precious
-
Especially because
Life might otherwise
Filter away
Like sand through an
hourglass
Day after day
With no mark or milestone
To make spirits lift
And recognize what
a
Remarkable gift
It is God has given
To us from above:
The gift? It is Life
And the reason?
It's Love
