A mother's day

little one
round pink glasses
taking in my smile
signing "happy"
saying "aaaaappy aappy"
one,
two,
three,
cereal sweetened kisses
on my face.
chubby hands
little bent pinkies
reaching
a big girl cup for you
sweet little one
ca-bull ca-bull ca-bull
what is that?
what are you trying to tell me
to teach me?
I ponder
the rhythm of the sounds,
considering....
knowing.
a self-sung mantra
Ive heard it before
"careful,careful,careful."
Nice and easy.
Dont rush.
Tomorrow
will be here all too soon.



Thank you for reading and going on this beautiful journey with us.
It seems every day she does something, tries to say something new.
Im afraid that I will be in that torn place of motherhood all too soon.
You know the one......
Pushing, teaching them to fly.
Yet inwardly grasping and trying to hold on.

Happy Mothers Day,
I remain,
Under His wings,
Anna
