Right after speaking with Marie today and learning about Lyon coming home this coming Thursday I heard this song by John Lennon on the radio, sung by Ben Harper. It touched me very deeply. It's called A Beautiful Boy.
Close your eyes
Have no fear
The monster's gone
He's on the run and your daddy's here
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day in every way
It's getting better and better
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Out on the ocean sailing away
I can hardly wait
To see you come of age
But I guess we'll both just have to be patient
'Cause it's a long way to go
A hard row to hoe
Yes it's a long way to go
But in the meantime
Before you cross the street
Take my hand
Life is what happens to you
While you're busy making other plans
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day in every way
It's getting better and better
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Darling, darling, darling
Darling Sean

With sincerest and Aloha and deep gratitude to all of you for all your kindness, prayers and good energy.
I pray that Lyon's Grandpa John, Grandma Tua and Aunty Esther can come meet Lyon. I know they love him dearly.
Aloha,
Grandpa Tom
