From the words of Celine Dion

To our beautiful "Miracle", Deqlan Ross, on your second Birthday ,11 Septemeber 2008

You're my life's one Miracle,

Everything I've done that's good

And you break my heart with tenderness,

And I confess it's true

I never knew a love like this till you....

You're the reason I was born

Now I finally know for sure

And I'm overwhelmed with happiness

So blessed to hold you close

The one that I love most

With all the future has so much for you in store

Who could ever love you more?

The nearest thing to heaven,

You're my angel from above

Only God creates such perfect love

When you smile at me,

I cry, And to save your life

I'll die

With a romance that is pure heart,

You are my dearest part

Whatever it requires,
I live for your desires
Forget my own, needs will come before
Who could ever love you more?
Well there is nothing you could ever do,
To make me stop, loving you
And every breath I take,
Is always for your sake
You sleep inside my dreams and know for sure
Who could ever love you more?
My Son Grows Up author: unknown
Life is fleeting, years rush past...
and little boys grow up so fast!
Let me take time out to be
thankful mine is still here with me.
And though I'm busy through the day,
let me take time out to play...
Let me take time out to smile,
to sit with him for just a while...
Let me take time out for walks,
for swings and sports and quiet talks,
for sharing giggles, tickles, and hugs,
for patching knees and catching bugs...
for running races, climbing trees,
for helping with his A - B - C's...
For hatching plots and planning schemes,
for listening to his thoughts and dreams.
Let me tuck him in at night, hear his prayers,
turn off the light.
And when my busy day is done,
let me thank God I have a son.

To our darling and precious DEQLAN,

A blessed and very happy 2nd birthday to you. What a magnificent cause for celebration -your birthday, NED forever status and port-free forever status ! Our Great God has truly blessed us all as a family to give us today as one of His many treasured gifts.
Nanna has had so many entries into her very special "Book of Memories" of today. Today the "present", the "gift"...... was YOU.
Only some of the magical moments from our special day include:
- your running around in great excitement outside, from early this morning, in true hero and celebratory mode, with the little "balloon bouquet" Nanna made for you to enjoy
- watching you open your gift of the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse DVD and then observing you squeal in pure delight when your favourite song "Hot Dog, Hot Diggity Dog" came on; even Grandpa was chuckling watching you joyously dance around in circles
- opening up all your presents (from us all) and "inspecting" them carefully and very quickly working out, with a great smile, the wheels which you could spin or the propellers of the helicopter which made bell sounds as you spun them
- having fun with your huge Mickey Mouse balloon from Meggie, Conrad and Keaton
- lighting your "singing birthday candles" and you blowing them out
- watching you "eat" the plastic numeral of "2" as if you wanted to "digest" the happy fact that you were now officially 2 years old
- sharing your beautiful Mickey Mouse cake with Mommy, Great-Grandpa, Nanna, Grandpa, Meggie and Keaton
- playing "touch" with Keaton who was having fun with "his" balloons
- recording precious memories on video and taking magical photos - when we could - since you are a bundle of energy and one seldom catches you in stationery pose for a photo !!!!
- your first morning nap as a 2 year old; Nanna's special privilege of singing you to sleep in the morning after we "play our sleep time games" and use the magic of the fishes to relax you; Nanna also uses this dedicated time to always pray to Jesus for special blessings for you ... and then the kisses in the hands
- Mommy and Daddy so very kindly inviting me to join you all for your birthday visit to the Zoo today; what a wonderful and so memorable time we all had, from driving around in the golf cart to seeing all the animals, to you doing dancing circles outside the gorilla enclosure, and you seizing any and every opportunity when we stopped to go for a quick run ... in the direction of the lions, .....and the kangaroos.....and the flamingoes ... and the seals......and the lemurs..... and the zebras .......and the elephants etc, etc, etc !

Thank you for all the joy and love you bring and give to us. We are so very blessed and honoured to be your Nanna and Grandpa. Deqlan, we could not love or cherish you more.

May our gracious God spare you to see many, many, many, many more birthdays and that, one day, as an old man, you read these entries of the blog that Mommy and Daddy kept for you and the comments that so many of us made.... you will have the time of your life reading it all and feel so good inside to know how many people's lives you changed, you touched, you influenced, you saved ..... as the heroic prayerful Deqlan.

May the sacred blessings of great health, happiness, love, peace, wisdom, serenity, strength, faith, hope, trust, prosperity and success, abundantly fill your heart, soul, mind and spirit all the days of your life.

CONGRATULATIONS BIG BOY !

All our love,
Nanna and Grandpa
