Why God made little boys

 God made a world out of His dreams,

of magic mountains, oceans,and streams,

prairies and plains, and wooded land.

Then paused and thought, I need

someone to stand on top of

the mountains, to conquer the seas,

explore the plains and climb the trees. 

Someone to start out small and grow,

sturdy and strong like a tree and so

He created boys, full of spirit and fun

to explore and conquer, to romp and run.

With dirty faces, and banged up chins,

with courageous hearts and boyish grins.

 

 And when He had completed

the task He'd begun,

He surely said, "Now that's a job well done."

I love my Emmitt boy so very much.  He seems like he grew up over night with the new baby here, but he is still my little loving boy that wipes his tears on my shirt, asks for "good morning hugs," and wants way too many kisses good night!  He brings me and our family so much happiness being the boy he is, and making all of the princesses of this house love the boyishness of him even more!
