Got this forwarded poem from my friend Jackie Ranit who is a wonderful teacher of children with special needs ...

Heaven's Very Special Child
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 show
And he'll require extra care
From the folks he meets way down there
He may not run or laugh 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.
will do a special job for you
They will not realize 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 this gift from heaven
Their precious charge, so meek and mild
Is heaven's very special child.
