How can I say goodbye When you were born & I held you in my arms you wiggled your toes & looked into my eyes And I knew I was yours As you grew and smiled that smile It melted my heart Life with you was a blessing, a gift, we shared so many laughs as well as a few tears But I was yours & you were mine A mother’s love knows no end so I will always be yours I always knew how much was your love & you were mine to love How many times you brought home a new stray to love - a sign of your love so deep, so true How you loved those around you with that heart so strong Life with you was a winding road but I always knew you were my loving son, felt your pain, saw you struggle & reached out in whatever ways I could But too soon came a day when I was to say goodbye, the hardest thing a mom could ever have to do And oh my Chris how I will miss you Because you were my world, my son And you were mine to love I will always feel that love you gave me as we shared so much time but-now that feels not nearly enough Oh how can I say goodbye so I ask come visit me Chris so that I can feel your presence, remember your hugs, your smiles, your laughter! Be not so gone that I can’t imagine, that I can’t remember you, because you were mine to love and now mine to forever miss I was truly blessed the day you were born and now my Chris I will hold you in my heart forever - til we meet again and a hug we will lovingly share I will love you forever more my Chris and so today I say my earthly goodbye til we meet again! Lounge in the clouds so I can just look up & imagine you there, ever near! For now til we meet again you will always be mine as I am yours! Sent from my Sonja's iPhone
