The midi below I grew up with and
when I had my two girls, sung them
to sleep with it as babies. It has
always held great meaning to me...

A Mother's Heart
How much love can my heart
hold
I asked myself one day,
I was feeling a little worried
. . .
a new baby was on the way.
My heart was filled with
love
for the baby in my arms,
I knew I'd give my life
for her
to protect her from harm.
Could I love another child
as much as I did the first,
Did I have enough courage
inside
to go through another birth?
The months went by, a new
baby grew
safe within my womb,
With every beat of his tiny
heart
my heart began to swoon.
We totally connected
day by day I loved him more,
I would rock and talk to
him
as love seeped to the core.
When he entered the world
a stranger I didn't meet,
I knew him inside and out
from his head to his little
feet.
I looked at him, my heart
swelled with love
and I knew there was no
end,
That day I learned my heart
would hold
enough love for one child
or ten.
