My Gifts
My child is the warmth I get from the sun.
My child is a day at the fair, where I go for fun.
My child is the rainbow you see in the sky.
Children are the ultimate gift to two people who love each other and the ultimate inconvenience to parents that don't. There is no bigger responsibility, and yet a relationship with a child can bear the greatest rewards. Children intuitively know when they are wanted and when they are not. The way that they raised from the cradle will affect the people they will become. There is a famous saying that children spell love T I M E. There may be many compelling reasons why you cannot be with your children but none of them can replace time. It is gone forever.

Give them love and a little cue,
They are the flowers with different hues.
Teach them to be fearless and strong,
Giggles, squeals and ticklish heels.
Tantrums, sighs and watery eyes.
A big gummy grin and wet sloppy kiss,
A frustrated grumble and clenched little fists.

How tiring it is
To be three years old.
Sit here, eat that,
Be constantly told.
Let kids be kids; just let them be
Princesses, pirates; let the bath be the sea!
Let them stare at the sky and find animals in the clouds.
Wow! A truly amazing poem with a beautiful message for parents. Childhood is a special period with so much joy, innocence and wonder. It is a delightful stage. Besides, so much good can be...
M...y life is good.
Y...es, I'm glad to be me.
C...hildren running everywhere,

A gardener, if he's very wise,
When it is planting season,
Will always use the best of seeds.
It only stands to reason.
Lord, help me be the Mother
You've chosen me to be,
One parent with a loving heart,
The mother of my three.
Full of laughter
Never ending dreams
When the sky reaches out, you'll see me
When the night is full
We recall the things our children used to say
For example from our daughter "I just want my hodalays"
We smile at the many times they use a phrase
And lots of other quirky things, on happy days
