If Heaven Had a Window

If Heaven had a window, 
oh what I wouldn't do. 
I'd love to see your smiling face 
my peace would be subdued.   
Would it seem as though I'd known you forever, or be a love brand new? Whatever kind of love it is, it's perfect because it's you. 
Five years have come and gone with so many wandering thoughts.
Who is it that you'd resemble the most, which other child of mine would they compare you to? 
Would you have hazel eyes like me or your dad's that are blue? 
Would you be my quiet peacemaker or the one that likes to compete? 
Whatever it is I know for sure, you'd make our life complete 
Too perfect for this earthly life is what I have been told
So full of courage, strength, and wisdom you must have been so bold 
For now I will sit here, patiently aging on this earth 
Just know my tears are those of joy 
they celebrate your birth 
One day we'll be together and make up time once lost
You'll always be my baby boy no matter what the cost 

Mommy loves you, Colten! We think of you often and are reminded frequently of the hole in our lives because you are not here with us!
