For all you moms..step mom's......foster moms....or anyone else that works hard at being there to make a house a home or bringing a family together! This one is for you!
Precious Gift
In His hands, he mixed all good things,
Like angel dust and butterfly wings!
The fluffiest of clouds and softest down.
A fragrant rose, and baby’s sounds!
Then added just a pinch of dew.
Rainbow colors and laughter too!
Then he said to the world,
“Are you ready for this?
For she can heal with just a kiss!”
She can walk the earth to save a child.
And never mind the “extra mile.”
While the rest of the world is sound asleep.
A constant vigil she will keep.
She’ll touch a flower and make it bloom,
Her radiant smile will warm a room!
She’ll calm a world of hurt and fear.
And though she’s strong you can see the tears.
For a mother is filled with a special love.
She’s a precious gift from heaven above!

Wow, such a wonderful and powerful poem. You write so well. A happy belated Mother's Day to you also. Hope you had a nice day and was able to spend time with your family.
We went to dinner with two of our kids. The youngest lives out of state so we didn't get a chance to see her. I did talk to her as she called to wish me a Happy Mother's Day.
