teach your daughters
imprinting words in my daughters
The simplest of Joy, The greatest of Love
Because you are…
I love you dear daughters
Because you are mine
For so many reasons I could never explain
Because you are mine
Because you are fine
Because you are fast
Because you are blasts
Because you are loud
Because you are round
Because you are shy
Because you are smiles
I love you dear daughters
Because you are mine
For so many reasons I cannot contain
Because you are whole
Because you are gold
Because you are bold
Because you are so
Because you are joy
Because you are fun
Because you are noise
Because you are bliss
I love you dear daughters
Again and again
For so many reasons I don’t even know
Because you are mine
Because you are ours
Because you are us
Because you are more
I love you dear daughters
I will say it again
Because you are love
Because you are joy
Because you are you
Because you are true
My most perfect truth

They Love To Dance
Twirling round in flutters like a rainbow butterfly
Sincere pride warms their hearts
It reflects outward in the dim auditorium
Joy, smiles, softness, and love on their innocent faces
Gracefully they glide like a flamingo in its natural habitat
Glistening brightly on white ice
They twirl and twirl in tutus of purple and blue
Tiny hands gloved in white
Delicate flakes of snow fall slowly to their beautiful rhythm
As the orchestra plays sensationally on
* I wrote this for the girls over a year ago, but recently found it after they performed in their first ballet recital. They haven’t stopped talking about it, so I thought to keep the excitement going by sharing this :). Thank you always!!!
A Very Happy Mother’s Day!
Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing women out there! You deserve this day, and everyone in between.
I am up early as is usual, and couldn’t go back to sleep; so I decided to look through old pictures and of course they were filled with images of the girls at 6 pounds or so. Amazing how time flies and how truly blessed I am to be (their) mom. I can’t help but be truly thankful and count my very many blessings. Such a great honor mommy hood has bestowed on me, and I am sure many mothers will agree.
What is our good fortune but these ones
Who welcome, and celebrate us with I LOVE YOU
On tough hard days
And the many light ones in between
How fortunate we are
These priceless hearts
Beating love and affection
Happily calling us (their) mom
Today as we celebrate all our amazing mothers, let us go the extra step to celebrate them daily…perhaps not with all the pomp and attention today gets but still with all the gratitude and genuine love.
Have a very blessed and happy mother’s day!
