On the day he was born
The nursery grew lighter.
And the world all around him
Has been since so brighter.
When he arrives at any scene, the mood is lightened and smiles grow wider.
His presence is a force, a force of good nature. We are glad he’s with us. He makes us glad just to be.
As a young boy, over and over he enacted the drama between good and evil with superhero action figures. Good always won. He is good. He is goodness. He always wins hearts.
Rare people carry positive energy always and everywhere. That is rare. He is unique. Radically so.
As a man grows older
He can grow wiser
But only if
His vision grows wider.
He sees the world like no one else. He is in the world like no one else. He marches to the beat of his own drum, an infectious drumbeat. He sticks to his guns and remains who he is, which encourages everyone else to be who they are. How lovely it is to be with someone who is never any threat but rather delights in who we are and who he is. My word, each moment he shares his vision of the world with me, how much wider has he made me see too, so wiser, he has made me.
No one I know laughs more easily. Including at himself. He is a superhero with super powers. My goodness, how he empowers all of us to laugh at ourselves too. Super. Power. Honestly, is there any greater?
With goodness, individuality, brightness, and authenticity without doubt, this too is how he loves. How sweet it is to be loved by him. He is *our* Noah, for it seems he loves all. How sweet he is. And, oh, how I love him. He is my son. And I am his father. He is Noah.
And if you know him, you know he’s the Good Stuff❤️
Happy birthday Noah
