Tell him that I love him....

Here is a poem I thought I'd share that I found online...My heart aches every day for my little boy...just when I think days are getting easier, things get harder...the days I call my husband to sob to him at work because my heart hurts so bad....I cannot imagine that my pain will ever stop...that this hole will ever be filled...I'm sure things will get easier as the months go by...but why do the days seem to last forever...........

Here's the poem:
God I know you gave your only son to give us life with you,
But we didn't want our son to leave cause he was precious too.
Somehow I took for granted, Lord, that we would have a lifetime
and I made so many future plans for that precious son of mine.
We were chosen to become the family of a very special child
Who would come to earth from heaven only for awhile
This was to become our destiny, and, Why? We need not know
For a parents greatest gift is to nurture and love a child with a perfect soul
Our child was like a ray of perfection and could not journey long
The source of power being God himself quietly calling him home
God came for you in silence so swift was your depart
He holds you now eternally and we'll hold you forever in our hearts
If I could take a minute out of each and every day
To hold you close to my heart and kiss your fears away
If I could take a minute of any span of time
I'd never waste a second of the pleasures that were mine
If you could crawl upon my knee and lay your sleepy head,
Upon my shoulder tenderly and dream of gingerbread.
I'd spend my time in total bliss and watch you grow
From babyhood to childhood, knowing all there is to know
If I could stop my aching heart and put my mind asleep
If I could stop the flow of tears that are always on my cheek
I only need a minute, Lord, I know he's safe with you
But there's something real important that I had no time to do
If you could do it for me, Lord, Here's a message he should know
Tell him that I love him, and then I'll let him go
