OUR EMMALEE

I would like to share with you that tonight  we  were  blessed with a POEM  written especially about em that leaves me truly once more  without words! One of Clevelands finest officer Michael Sikora  who is especially gifted in the perception and beautiful expression of  words of His  encounters, experiences and special people who touch Him leave us touched & beyond .....So Compelling

He WITHOUT  ever having the direct opportunity to meet my Em   put together a collection of touching words to be the most profound summary of her story in such a tender moving expressionistic manner. 

A compilation of  the most perfect words, reaching every tender corner of my heart, that we have experienced on our journey  ...

Thank you Mike! Such a gift and Talent!

It is the most beautiful written description  of  who She is and her Faith!

Upon receiving it  in I could not even make it thru  the first couple of lines ...... 

reading it  grasped my heart!

EMMALEE

When she came she was quite a surprise

And brought tears of joy to her parents eyes.

She was as cute as she could be

 And they named her EMMALEE.

their joy was short lived when they heard the doctor say

There was a problem with her airway.

It was not completely there

But there could be a repair.

So many surgeries she has went through

Year after year as she grew.

Now  at the age of seven years

Her story brings you to tears.

She says that no one understands

It is all in God's hands.

Although she is in pain

 you will never hear her complain.

Now she is so far from her home

Away from those she loves and has known.

Emmalee and her mom are all alone

While dad tries to  maintain their Texas home.

He's a cop in Sugarland

trying to smile and understand.
He worries for their safety every day
And for His safety they both pray.
Keep him safe and out of harm
Till He can hold us in his arms.
When they arrived they didn't know what would be
They were adopted into the Cleveland Police Family.
We will do whatever we can do
To help them do anything they want to.
Emmalee has touched our Heart
She may be young but she is smart.
She knows to make it through this day
She has to believe in God and pray.
We all want her to succeed
so we'll see to her every need.
She is wise far beyond her years
she has faith to conquer her fears.
If there is one thing we can learn from her
Is that with God you can be sure
if there is still away
To God all you have to do is pray.
Prayers will be answered this we know
Faith in God says it is so.
 Please- continue to have faith and believe
EMMALEE there is nothing you cannot Achieve!
