Blessed By Two

Published by Family Friend Poems April 2006 with permission of the Author.

The two of you will never know
How much my love has grown
To be blessed by two
When others have so few.

From the moment you were conceived,
You were all that I would ever need.
To hold you, comfort you, and love you both
Is all that I could ever hope.

You are my life,
You are my hope.
To see you both happy
Is my only hope.

My happiness has been through you.
I loved you both before you were you.
There were aches and pains, but it was worth it all.
I could not foresee what was to be.

From the first moment I held you both,
My love has only continued to grow.
There have never been two children as beautiful as you.

I am so proud of the both of you.
The good Lord was good to me and making you both my destiny.
Though now you want to be free from me,
Just remember there wouldn't be any you without me.

Grow up and be strong, but don't forget about me.
Your futures are bright as anyone can see.

When I am gone and in a better place,
Remember me more than just a face
I will continue to thank God every day
For my role that I have played,
As I have been blessed by two.
