Daughter
Thoughts of you
make me smile
little girl
for a little while
My lovely daughter
so full of grace
in all you do
in all you face
Once you skipped
now you run
fulfilling goals
all well done
Remember days
that slowly passed
wiggling toes
in dew damp grass
Dandelion stains
on tiny fingers
joyful laughs
forever linger
I wrap your dreams
around my heart
Love, prayers and blessings
from the start.

Son
Hearing the words "It's a boy!"
Brings back memories of great joy
Dear sweet baby - now a man -
You're a precious gift in God's plan
Silly antics and running feet
Will always echo in my sleep
Big bear hugs and sticky kisses
Pockets full of stones and wishes
in dark nights of shooting stars
Bright dreams flew upwards farther than far
Life is full of challenges
Sometimes burdens and cares
So hang on to childhood's shooting stars
they might just carry you farther than far.
And, oh, sweet son, remember this -
whenever you're at play,
Your winning smile will forever be
The light of all my days.
