Hello! My name is Melody. I want to welcome you to MelodyLane. I will be sharing with you about my life and other interesting things like stories and poems and lots of pictures.

I was born, May 26, 1981 with a condition called Williams Syndrome. To learn more about this condition, click on the links button where it will take you to my page where it is listed among many other neat pages.

My Mommy will be helping me with these pages. She wants to share an essay that she kept in her bible for many years.

God bless you and please enjoy your visit and come back often.

The Perfect Child

As my children were born, I wanted them to be perfect. When they were babies, I wanted them to smile and be content playing with their toys. I wanted them to be happy and to laugh continually instead of crying and being demanding. I wanted them to see the beautiful side of life.

As they grew older, I wanted them to be giving instead of selfish. I wanted them to stay innocent forever.

As they became teenagers, I wanted them to be obedient and not rebellious, mannerly and not mouthy. I wanted them to be full of love, gentle and kindhearted.

"Oh, God, give me a child like this" was often my prayer. One day he did. Some call her handicapped... I call her perfect!
