Array ( [sid] => 118623 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Son, My Hero [time] => 2006-04-19 16:39:27 [hometext] => My son saved my life one day, he was only 12 at the time. The most heroic thing I've ever witnessed with my own eyes. [bodytext] => On the day that you were born,
God blessed me with a son.
You were just a little guy,
I loved you more than anyone.
At home I had two daughters,
Beautiful beyond compare.
But you were my only little man,
Making you very special right there.
I've learned so much from you James,
Over the years as I've watched you grow.
I am so very proud of you,
How much you'll never know.
You're growing into a fine young man,
A grown-up soon you will be.
But you'll always be my little guy,
And very special to me.
I'll never forget what you did that day,
How you saved my life.
You just jumped right in there,
Not thinking of your own life.
You could have been so badly hurt,
Injured more than I.
But all you said about it was,
"I didn't want to see you die."
I am so very proud of you,
Prouder I couldn't be.
I love you oh so very much,
You are a hero to me.
