Sleeping Beau


"The woman is the heart of the home. Let us pray that we women realize the reason for our existence; to love and be loved and through this love become instruments of peace in the world." - Mother Teresa


Elliot Andrew Jin-seo, my third son

Who only smiles on Fridays;
Who loves, delights, and begs to be tickled, especially under his chin;
Who brought new life to a thirty-year-old plus donkey, whom he affectionately calls Donkey Daniel;
Who to our mantra stolen from The Help, "You are kind, you are smart,
you are important," added, "you are handsome;"
Who stole my heart with his half-smile and wave from behind the altar at church today;
Forgive me for often refusing to see the Christ in you. I love you.

Good night Sweet Prince.
