Before you were even born she loved you. She thought of teddy bears, and bright colors, walks in the park and night lights in the dark. Of rocking you in her arms, and singing a favorite song. Her heart filled with joy, will you be a baby girl or baby boy. Her love grew as she carried you feeling your first kick from within her womb. You were kept safe and warm while she waited for you to be born. Longing to hold you in her arms. To cuddle and snuggle you, the tender moments of a mother and child. The story books, and loving looks, that made it all worth while. Then the day did come she heard your first cry. Her first tears came to her eyes. You were placed in her arms a miracle come true. As she kissed you and said,"I Love You". She wiped the tears from your eyes the dirt from your face. Comforted you when feeling blue. Took the splinter from your finger encouraged you in a race. Praised you in all you did do. She nourished you in all the good ways. Teaching you right from wrong. She tucked you in bed, kissed you good night, whispering I Love You, see you in the morning light. Some of us have memories of our Mothers love we knew. Some still have there Mothers to say, "I Love You". Which ever one of these it is one thing I am certain of.
