A Poem for Jake
‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through
my house
Much excitement was stirring. . and
it wasn’t a mouse!
The cause of excitement was easy to see,
for my sweet little Grandson would soon
visit me.
Jake and his Mommy and Daddy would soon
be arriving at last by the light of the moon!
On a jet plane from Indy this family would
fly,
hundreds of miles to the Connecticut sky.
At last they were here and while hugging
and talking,
My heart swelled with pride as I watched Jacob
WALKING!
The thrill of this moment had long been awaited,
And my feelings of love could never be stated.
God answered my prayer in this most special
way
And I’ll thank HIM for this miracle for the
rest of my days.
Happy New Year to all from Jake’s Grammy!
