Wher I am Fom

I am from the tire swing and the tree house,
I am from a trailer and a brick house,
I am from too many older siblings and summer trips.

I am from no broken parts and from sensitive hearts,
I am from too many allergies and many sicknesses,
I am from the man that died on the cross for me and humanity.


I am from chicken tenders with french fries,
I am from grocery shopping,
I am from nerds and geeks,
I am from sports and video games.

I am from my great great grandpa that fought in WWII,
I am from my brother who fights for my country,
I am from my pawpaw who I never had the chance to meet,
I am from singers and dancers.
I am from the top of tree.

I am from grandparents that love me dearly,
I am from parents that take care of me the best they can,
I am from the Butler family.

This made me feel so many different emotions, one being complete joy. Joy that my son had and still has such a precious intelligent tenderness that few people are gifted by.
