Sister of Mine


A defining moment…
Rachel

I saw my heart wrapped in a blue baby blanket
sitting down obediently
welcoming my sister into my open arms
gently with pride
I cradled her--- my Rachel, my Rachel

Sister of mine
I have wanted and waited and now it’s our time

Sister of mine
an angel with soft feathered wings laced in gold
a sister with such small hands, fingers and the tiniest of toes.

I behold

Sister of mine
Sister of mine

With this feeling is love
You shall always shine

You always shine.

Nurture

Nurture our children so they may cultivate their gifts
The better we care for our young, the better they may learn to care for us.

Bathing With My Daughter


Bathing in the tub with Hannah, she requested that we use all my favorite bath products--my special shampoo and conditioner, my bath moisturizer, liquid soap. I squeezed it onto my bath sponge and lost myself in its wonderful aroma. Hannah inquired, “Mommy, what does it smell like?”
I inhaled and replied, “It smells just like the first day of spring after a long winter” and she smiled.

Pride

May the air not just be breathable but healthy
May I help it be that way

May the water not just be plentiful but clean
May I help it be that way

May the earth cradle me in her love
May I be grateful

May I be proud of who I am today
and who I aspire to be tomorrow
