You're always there in the early morning quiet of my ride to work. You're always there on the special days that bring us all together... But today I stepped outside for a moment as the sky began to lighten and birds chirped away in the trees and in that moment I thought where is my son.... why can't he hear the birds and share this morning's glory.
