What a wise son you raised! I can only imagine the types of things I was writing about at his age!
This one is a keeper. The poem I mean. Well Dallin too but I guess that was a given.

Poem writing is in my genes!
That is very sweet. Great job Dallin!

Greg is right, it's in his genes. What a beautiful poem. Good job Dallin!
Wow! I'm so impressed! What a beautiful poem. It's so nice to hear his thoughts on life and his blessings. Dallin is so talented!
That is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
That is so sweet. How mature he is to recognize those things in his life that are such blessings, that most kids don't even notice.
Wow! What talent! That really was very beautiful.
