Poem for Parents

POEM FOR PARENTS 

I found a poem written by a mother who has a special needs child. Although special needs varies from physical or learning difficulties, adhd, anxiety etc it is all the same.

This is for all the parents : You are chosen especially by God Please know you are very special and your child knows that to.

HEAVEN'S VERY SPECIAL CHILD

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 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 isn'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 the 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
Comes a stronger faith and richer love.

And soon they'll know the privilege given
In caring for the Gift from Heaven.
Their precious charge,
so meek and mild
Is Heaven's Very Special Child.
Edna Massimilla


The Gift here is God chooses special people to be there parents. Please know you as parents dealing with this day in and day out are special and valued.
