MY CHILDREN


Hearing them say “I love you mom”
Everyday is a blessing
Always being together
Valuing every second
Each one is special in their own way
Not wanting them to leave the nest


Opening new doorways for the future
Never wanting to say goodbye


Everyone loving each other
Always to stay connected
Reaching our goals together
Teaching them right from wrong
Having them in my life

Filled with the pride and love of motherhood

I love my children also even though they are grown now. The hardest thing a parent can do is let go when the time comes. Good write. I enjoyed it a lot. Respectfully, Rett: "Life is like a beach. Salty, gritty, somewhat fishy and at other times, downright crabby" Rett: 2008
