Does he know?

As I lifted Liam into the bath tub, I thought to myself....Man, I love him so much. If only he knew how intense my love is for him. Does he know, that I spent endless nights praying him home? Does he know that every morning, I went to the database, hoping that his picture had been updated? Does he know that I wore his referral picture around my neck until the day I brought him home? Does he know that I called him Liam from the first day that I saw his picture?

No, he doesn't. But it doesn't matter, because I know.



I know that I can't live without this little guy.
I know, that his name makes me smile.
I know that I would hold him all day if I could.
I know that I love the smell of his skin and the feel of his soft brown hair in my face.
I know that I can't wait to see his little face when his bus pulls up at the end of the day.
I know that when I hear his little noises in the morning, that my heart skips a beat.
I know that he is my son and that I am his very lucky Mama.
I know that I can't thank Jesus enough for the gift of my precious boy.
