MY CHILDREN

Posted Oct 28, 2008 · 15 lines · 4 critiques

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
