I can't remember who wrote this so I'm just putting a disclaimer in here. It's a poem for parents who have 'different' children.
A meeting was held quite far from earth,
it’s time again for another birth
Said the angels to the Lord above,
“this special child will need much love”
His progress may seem very slow,
accomplishments he may not know,
And he’ll require extra care,
from the folks he meets down there
He may seem slow to run or play,
his thoughts may seem quite far away
In many ways he won’t adapt,
and he’ll be known as handicapped
So let’s be careful where he’s sent,
we want his life to be content
Please Lord find the parents who,
will do a special job for you
They will not realise right away,
the leading role they’re asked to play
But with this child sent from above,
comes stronger faith and richer love
And soon they’ll know the privilege given,
in caring for the gift from heaven
Their precious charge so meek and mild,
is Heaven’s Very Special Child
