The first Ray of Sunshine came forth <br />at my first child's, [a son] great birth. <br />With eyes that twinkled as of a star, <br />and the most brilliant of blue, by far. <br /> <br />His blond curly hair and skin so fair <br />were admired by all who were there. <br />A clever mind was soon seen he had, <br />he was a modest and smart young lad. <br /> <br />With ever so sensitive and quick mind <br />he didn't take long to fit in with his kind. <br />He considered others in all his thoughts <br />and did best as he chose, for many sorts. <br /> <br />He would silently worry and did really care <br />about injustices - and they are always there. <br />Many youngsters he did take under his wing <br />to give confidence to everyone in everything. <br /> <br />A good scholar and a representative sportsman too, <br />he shone for his Aussie teams, and mates, 'true-blue'. <br />Quickly years passed, and after many a lovely lass, <br />one day he met one who understood him, and alas. <br /> <br />My Ray of Sunshine, from when my days were often grey, <br />married our beautiful Kellie, one very special October day. <br />Time has passed ever so speedily since then, and after a time <br />two little ones arrived, and my Sunshine and Kell felt sublime. <br /> <br />The giving to others have made these proud parents special, <br />as all do love them, and much respect, they receive from all. <br />Two better people one would never be able to meet, or to find, <br />and I am so very very proud of them, and their mates of a kind. <br /> <br />To my Ray of Sunshine and his most precious wife and family, <br />the irresistible lad of energy Declan, and dear little Lara Maree, <br />I send you all, through this message, my best wishes, infinite love <br />and every rich blessing to you and your family, from God above. <br /> <br />Colleen Wright.
