Brave with Hydrocephalus: Trying to Crawl

HEAVEN'S VERY SPECIAL CHILD
A meeting was held quite far from Earth,
It was time again for another birth.
Said the Angels to the Lord above -
"This special child will need much love.
His progress may be very slow,
Accomplishments he may not show.
And he'll require extra care
From all the folks he'll meet down there.
He may not run or laugh or play,
His thoughts may seem quite far away.
So many times he will be labeled
'different,' 'helpless' and 'disabled'.
So let's be careful where he's sent.
We want his life to be content.
Please Lord, Find the Mother who
Will do a special job for you.
She will not realize right away
The leading role she's asked to play.
But with this child sent from above
Comes stronger faith, and richer love.
And soon she'll know the privilege given
In caring for her gift from heaven.
Her precious charge, so meek and mild
is heaven's very special child."
