Things I Have Missed Today.

Today it came in the mail.

I heard the knock on the door.

They put it together.

I listen as they try to contain his excitement.

They threw away the box.

He did not help, he wanted to stay with his new thing.

My Big smiled.

I can hear him smile from my bed- with my new bed table.

"yaaaaaaaay" he cheers

My heart begins to break.

"I want it, I want it" he cries happily.

I can close my eyes and see the joy and excitement on his face.

They take him outside.

I can hear them now out the window.

They help him, they teach him.

I just missed my son on his very first bike. Thomas the Train bike.

I will never get this moment back.

I sit here, in my bed, missing this moment.

I cry into my tissue.
