10 years old! Ten years ago today, we didn’t know who you were. 10 years ago today, you were a mystery. The sweetness of your smile. The Funny things you say and do. What a bright boy, you have begun. We used to read together, When we were…6,7,8,9 Now you are 10, 10, 10. A decade years old. This, first decade was a whopper. You jumped on the scene with all of the power and strength of every other Walker man that I have ever known. Grandma Ruth smiled ever so wide to see your little face. Grandpa Bob and My Dad were 60 and 80 years, your senior, almost to the day. You were wished for. Exactly one year earlier, I saw cousin Ton,Ton and I kissed him and said, Oh my, oh my I want another one and you were more than I ever imagined that day. What a wish! Take me half way across the sky. You have stretched me past my wildest dreams in having and knowing you and seeing your tremendous contribution to the family. I do expect great things from you! We were waiting, we were watching, you surprised us, by your comforting,. It was lonely, only 4 of themJ We were looking for someone special to love and God reached inside and sent us you. He did , Took us halfway, across the sky, Out where the hope is growing, we keep knowing why. God is in charge. He gave us you. The precious picture of his love is here in view. You’re impulsive and considerate, You are helpful and sometimes obstinate, We can trust you with responsibilities, We see that you are the boy, we know is filling our hearts with love and precious peace. Take me half way across the sky, You stretched my wildest dreams of only you and I We went halfway across the sky, To catch a glimpse of God’s love beaming from your eyes.
