~Poem~

My sister in law, Crystal, recently sent me this poem.  It's words speak volumes.....



A meeting was held quite far from earth.
It’s time again for another birth,
Said the angels to the Lord above,
This special child will need much love.
Her progress may seem very slow.
Accomplishments she may not show.
And she’ll require extra care,
From the folks she meets way down there.
She may not run or laugh or play,
Her thoughts may seem quite far away.
In many ways she won’t adapt
and she’ll be known as handicapped.
So let’s be careful where she’s sent.
We want her life to be content.
Please Lord, find me parents who
will do a special job for you.
They will not realize right away
The leading role they’re asked to play.
But with this child sent from above
Come stronger faith and richer love.
And soon they’ll know the privilege given,
In caring for this gift from Heaven.
Their precious charge, so meek and mild,
Is Heaven’s Very
Special Child.
