During this season of Lent, I think so many times of the journey our Lord is preparing to take... through Mary's eyes. And I think of you, my sweet boy and cannot imagine the pain and heartache she endured as she watched her son. Noah, the minute I found out we were blessed with a baby I turned you over to our Blessed Mother, I waited my whole life for you and I laid myself and you before her and asked as a Mother herself, that she help me to keep you healthy and safe, my promise to her that day and everyday since has been that if she helped me guide you, the example of pure love that she is, that I would do my best to raise you as a strong Catholic/Christian man and that your life would be open to God's will as I pray ours are every day. I think of what she endured, and I try so hard to tell my self that just as she did, there may be times that I have to stand back and let God's will be done, even if it is painful. I pray for joy and peace everyday of your life Noah Croix, but most importantly I pray that you answer God's call for the purpose of your life. I love you son, with every breathe I take...
