The learning’s of Motherhood
I’ve always held a list of favorites but you gave me a new way,
The things most cherished to my heart had different meaning in a day.
You've shared a different perspective and simply shed new light.
A daily race that kept me focused, a twenty six mile goal I fought ,
These jogs kept me driven but you were the goal I sought.
A ladder I grasped onto, and began to climb,
The career I found alluring has lost most glimmer and shine.
There is a world I once had traveled, just out across the sea,
I thought I’d left my heart there but you’ve brought it back to me!
Frozen delights that I've indulge and allowed to dance across my tongue,
One day to share these sweets with you, well, that will be most fun!
A special phase of la Luna, I always crave to see,
But it is not quite as bright as the eyes of my Laney.
And the beloved season we call summer; sunshine sprinkles on your face ,
And waves splashing in the ocean, this is too a much loved place.
Not the gritty feeling, of sand squishing at my toes,
Gives me the satisfaction of kissing your button nose.
Saturdays out shopping is a time all girls find fun,
I’ve found more satisfaction at Neiman's with my number one.
Reading books for pleasure, sometimes, stole my idle time,
But you’re the one I can’t put down, this captivating story of mine!
Watching America’s Team with Daddy has grown onto my list of joys,
But mostly I look forward to us rooting for those Cowboy’s.
Enchanting you’ve swept through and cast your spell upon us all,
This tiny family needed a baby to love, cuddle, and crawl.
In this special list of favorites, and glory days of bliss,
You are a life that God created; my most precious gift.
Motherhood is a whirlwind of emotions; it’s a brand new game,
It’s a time I’ll always treasure, though my life is not the same.
Every moment passes quickly but I hold our sweet days close,
From a long list of favorites, you’re the one I adore most.
It is still only the beginning, fresh times we have to grow,
Still we've learned a new love swiftly, you captivated from hello.
I’ve learned a list cannot quite capture ,
a truth that is quite clear:
To love you more than anything;
You are my favorite everything.
