Big Things come in Small Packages

The little blond four year old 

She didn’t want the new edition to come 

For fear he’d push her into the cold

Although now she knows it was rather dumb 

Couldn’t believe he was coming so soon 

Sitting in that waiting room 

She knew she’d have to ship him to the moon 

Suddenly it all went into a gloom

Nurses rushing in to take him away 

Mother bawling for her precious baby boy 

I myself wondering why he couldn’t stay 

Crazy how the newbie already brought me such joy 

Doctor came in after a long moment 

Speaking privately with my family 

Little did I know he’d end up being such an enlightenment 

The man spoke softly 

“Your son has been diagnosed with achondroplasia”

Hearts shattered over the unknown disability 

Almost 13 years later and he grows on ya 

A 4 foot baller with amazing ability 

Personality twice his size 

No problem telling you what to do 

Future pro Fortnite player on the rise 

Always running his mouth as loud as he wants to 

All you can do is laugh too

Theres no controlling his over the top attitude 

But, Pate, I will always love you
