Oh Jorge, how I wish that you were around to see our beloved Kolin grow up
He is the perfect blend of the two of us
His hair grows up out of his scalp like mine
But his eyes and smile belong to you
His grit and determination come from the both of us
He is such a stubborn and opinionated little boy; you know that comes directly from you
When he was born, the doctors counted him out
He would be blind, deaf, and unable to eat and walk on his own, they said
But Kolin kept fighting
When he came home from the NICU, he couldn’t even move his left arm
But you spent hours working with him, teaching Kolin how to use it
No, he does not have complete movement of his left arm and hand but have you seen him spin an I-phone? Lol
He is such a sweet happy little boy and his spirit drawn people near
His smile can light up any heart, no matter how damaged it is
I do not know what his future holds
Will he be able to walk? Talk?
Will he be able to go off to college? Get married? Have a family of his own?
I don’t know
But I do know that with a mother like me and a father like you up in heaven praying on his behalf
He will live a great life
