Here is a poem that my mom wrote to my brother and I that I would like to share. Please let me know what you think.
Pain and awe
flying high
Time,please wait
that's his first cry
---a mother
A skinned knee
a torn pink dress
Arms reaching up
a small voice says
---Mommy
Untied shoes
tousled hair
In grubby hands
a flower's there
---for you, Mom
Sparkling eyes
face so dear
The doorbell rings
her boyfriend's here
---he's cute, Mom
Proud and tall
so sure, so right
Licenese to drive
the furute's bright
---don't worry, Mom
A dreamy look
excited plans
A tear,a smile
two golden bands
---I love him, Mom
Anxiety grips
hope runs wild
A tiny sound
my child's child
---hello, Grandma

Wow! Be sure to tell your mother that her poem was just beautiful. I was almost in tears at the end because my daughter just turned one last week, but I know in time I will experience all of those.

Hi.
Really really really very nice.
It is really sweet, specilly the last one when the mom no longer is only a mom but a grandma. In the whole day today, this is the one small time I have enjoyed something, thank you.
