I don't have anything to say so I'll put up this song, I can't remember if I did it before, so apologies if I did.
I dreamt I saw my dad, he said "hello son"
I said, "I've walked a million steps without
my laces coming undone"
He said, "how many?" in his special way
I said, "I passed fifty million just the other day."
I visited my mom, she was on her knees
She said, " Edward would you help me say my rosary please?"
I said, " I've got the time mom, we can get it done"
She started with the Joyful Mystery number one.
When I'm with my sisters I learn as much as I can
The things I've learned from them make me a better man,
They've made their mark from place to place throughout the years
And when we get together it brings my heart to tears.
My brothers are my heroes though they may not know
I don't brag about them so it doesn't show
When we get together we have so much fun
I have so much love for each and every one.
There is so much love in this heart of mine
This much love can make a dull day shine
So much love and so much to share
It can drive the darkness out of anywhere
Loved

๐คท๐ป♂️No apology needed, Edward! ๐ถYour song is one that could be repeated any number of times as a tribute to family ๐and to your personal relationship with each and everyone of us. ๐ Even without hearing your words๐, we know how much you love us. ๐ฅ Thanks for this beautiful reminder at the beginning of the glorious month of September.๐
๐ค๐คHugs, Louise and David
What a beautiful song, Ed! Your creativity shines through, once more, in your writing! I know you are an artist when it comes to drawing and creating fimos, floors, and such. It doesn't surprise me that you are also a creative writer. Amazing! I also believe that the number of steps you said you've walked is true! What a guy!
Hi Ed,
Wow! What can I say? You are my brother, my hero, my Loved.
Thank you for a most beautiful song and tribute.
Love you sooooo much,
Mary Ellen

๐♀️Thanks for understanding, Hannah Lynn. It seems to us that Google occasionally finds something ‘unacceptable’ in one of our acrostic greetings and discards it. ๐ซ Such a rejection has happened in two other cases. It’s hard for us to make changes when we don’t know what we’re doing wrong. ✔️ Anyway, our point was to wish you a happy nineteenth birthday๐. We’re glad you got the message. Hugs.๐ค๐ค
