A Mother's Love  
First we were two and now we are three, 
Blessedly, we have become a family, 
A mother's love for her child is like one I have never known, 
You are a gift from above that only God can loan,
  
Time goes more quickly now, as I watch you grow, 
I hope you know how much I love you so, 
I wonder each night as I tuck you in and say your prayer, 
Did I hug and kiss you enough so you know how much I care?
  
Did I take the time to look in your eyes and listen when you needed me to? 
 
Did we laugh and play enough to satisfy you?
  
I wonder as you doze what memories fill your head, 
I think about the things I should or shouldn't have said, 
I thank God for the night time, for sleep and dreams, 
The promise of morning and new beginnings it seems, 
 
For you, each new day brings excitement and wonder, 
A new day to learn and discover, 
For me, a new day gives me just a little more time, 
To build memories together that will last a lifetime.
