A great day
Time goes by quickly. It’s amazing to think that it’s been four years since I first held his little body in my arms…
Orion is your name
A treasure like no other
That’s what you are
I waited almost a decade
Just to hold you in my arms
Your tiny hands so fragile
Yet so powerful it gives me strength
One of my foot was on my grave
But your birth was all worth it
Orion that’s your name
The winter stars that shine the sky
Bright and visible like no other
Dominating my heart like no one had done
Oh you sure took your time
Waiting until I’m past 30
I almost gave up, So know
I’m beyond happy to be your mom

Jessica E. Larsen
Thank you
It’s been my wish before I get married that I’ll name my son after the constellation since I have 3 moles across my face that forms the Orion’s belt haha 
Roselyn P.
Ooohh so it’s the constellation! I’m sorry I’m not really familiar
Oh I got 4 moles on the right side of my neck..
Jessica E. Larsen
I married a hobby scientist so it was an expected result. Hehe
We’re not Filipino without at least 1 mole
Roselyn P.
Ohh a hobby scientist…
And yes I agree with you

Beautiful words full of love and tender
May you all have a wonderful and happy life together!
Jessica E. Larsen
Thank you so much dear Ribby, I do love him a lot
even when he end makes me want to cry of frustration at times at the end of the day, he still make a terrible day better.
Each time you mention how he is a mini-me I end up staring at pictures just to compare

Oh yes, more he grows and I see him more like you
