Ash

We are not Wiccan in any way. We live and love in God. This was just something that did make me think about all my babies in an earthy, hippie way.

My Henry. Are you An Ash tree leaf? Are you useful? Yes. Helpful?yes. You love to be my big helper. You are just getting to be a great big helper! Are you overlooked? No. You are never overlooked. How could anyone overlook that sweet precocious smile? Those big squishy cheeks? Those sweet smiling eyes? The way you ask over and over "why?" With the dropped tone at the end.? How could I not answer you? Beautiful boy, who, everywhere we go, people tell me "take lots of pictures! He is truly beautiful". "Get him in modelling. He is gorgeous". We agree. You are. But your face is not why I love you. It is your heart. The intensity of your love. For trucks. For books. For your sisters. For "paw". For daddy. And yes, for me.
