A MOTHER'S LOVE IS VERY POWERFUL...

[lightsoflove]

                                           

                                WHEN YOU WERE FIRST BORN,

I GUESS.. FROM THE VERY MOMENT, I LAID MY EYES ON YOU...

    

I FELT IT... A RUSH OF LOVE

A FEELING OF JOY

 

     SO OVERWHELMING.....

    

  A  FEELING OF WARMTH SO GREAT

            IT BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES...

                             

                 

I ASKED MYSELF...

"IS THIS WHAT A MOTHER'S LOVE FEELS LIKE?"

 

 "IS  THIS ANGEL...

MINE... TO HOLD... TO HELP GROW...

TO BE THE VERY BEST MOTHER... I CAN BE?"

 

IT MUST BE...AS I LOOK BACK,

 

 THERE WAS NO MORE IMPORTANT TIME IN MY LIFE...

  THAN THE NIGHT YOU LOOKED INTO MY EYES.... 

I KNEW THEN... THAT YOUR WERE SPECIAL...

      YOU SO SMALL GIVEN TO ME BY GOD...

   

 TO TEACH ME HOW TO LOVE.....

  TO FIND A JOY...

I HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE....

 

 AND NOW SO MANY YEARS LATER....

 

I AM STILL SO HAPPY TO BE YOUR MOTHER.....

 

YOUR SMILE WARMS ME

         

    YOUR LAUGHTER IS INFECTIOUS 

  

WHEN I AM BLUE AND I FEEL LIKE CRYING

YOUR LOVE SURROUNDS ME.....

  AND I FIND THAT I AM NO LONGER SAD.....

   

A MOTHER'S LOVE IS VERY

POWERFUL...    

    I NEVER KNEW HOW POWERFUL... UNTIL I HELD YOU IN MY ARMS.....

UNTIL YOU SAID... "MOMMA...."

YOU ARE MY SWEET, SWEET CHILD...

                   AND I LOVE YOU MORE

              THAT YOU CAN EVER KNOW.....

           

                             

                    

                                       

I want to say "THANK YOU" to every mom who share in this special project and helped make this post possible in honor of our beautiful children.

Gloria

What a blessing you all are. You inspire me in a way that changes my whole perspective on life. I so appreciate people like you in the world. Thank you for being who you are...one that God has trusted....one that God has found faithful....one that God has obviously blessed in a way that I have never known blessing to be. I am thankful for my blessings as I have many children, but in a way I am jealous that you get to go to a place that I have never gone. May God continue to richly bless you and cause His face to shine upon you.....
