Just What I Needed

Right after we got married,I got with child, it was not planned but we were still happy.Everyone was hoping for a boy,,to me , it didn't matter.Around the 7th.month, I had a dream; I saw a picture of a couple with a small boy,and the little boy looked just like his father.It was a sign to me that I would have a son and he would look just like his dad. My mother would make comments about how she hoped that wouldn't happen, but the time came when I gave birth to my son,and just as in my dream, he looked just like his father. My mom would hold him and say poor baby, he looks just like his dad, to me he was my adorable son. Some years later his father and I divorced and I kept our three children which wasn't easy. My two daughters married young and only my son stayed with me. He became my strong arm,he has been with me through thick and thin, together we have faced hardships but also abundance.God has given me just  what I needed,,a son who would stand by me with loyalty,respect and love. My mother adores my son, he has all the grace of God in him ,that's the only explanation I have.
