Remember Me

Remember Me

A Story by Kathryn Smith

For even if i'm far away 

I hold you in my heart

I sing a secret song to you each night we are apart

Remember me

Though I have to travel far

Know that I"m with you the only way that I can be

until you're in my arms again

Remember me 





Not too far from where I am, there is a six year old boy. 

This boy isn't an ordinary boy...he is someone I love more than anyone. 

I began to take care of him when he was 3 months old. 

I needed some healing at the time - and little did I know he was the light I needed. 

I watched him slowly grow into who he is today. 

He is a bright eyed rambunctious, imaginative, faith filled, cautious, wondrous boy. 

Sometimes I take him to the gardens in the summer...

We eat ice cream and I watch him delight in the small things. 

I visited him over the weekend..and as I read him a story he
curled right up to me and rested his head on my shoulder as if I was his own
mother. 

We can go months without seeing one another - and when we meet again
our bond is still there. 

I know he wont stay little forever - and I know I might not be in his life forever. 

It kills me to know that he may never know just how much I loved him. 

More than anything...

I hope he remembers me. 

I hope he goes on in life to do great things. 

I hope he remembers our songs, and laughter. I hope he remembers I was
always there for him when he needed me. 

And I hope he remembers what I taught him. 

I hope he remembers my words when he was down or hurting. 


I love him. 

I love him. 

I will forever

Love him.
