Good To The Bone

Lennon is one of the most beautiful people I know.

Eager to please, good natured, ready to try almost anything, willing to do whatever it takes to get a job done and do it right, he is unfailingly patient and calm in the face of frustration and his ingenuity can be amazing. I have seen him face unbelievable odds for someone his age and I have never heard him complain, even when he is so tired he can barely put one foot in front of the other.

Joyful and sweet beyond belief, he can be almost comical in his passion for things, pounding his fist on the table, stomping that foot emphatically to make his point.

He sees beyond the world’s façades with an innocence and straight forwardness that must be experienced to be understood. As young as he is, he already has a sense of who he is.

I think he is simply good to the bone.

Knowing he will someday, pass all this on to his son, inspires me beyond belief. To me he is the sun and the moon and the stars, all rolled up into one.

I just love him.
