My Boys

As a mom i will always be there for them, day or night Blessed to be their mom, i wouldn't have it any other way Caring for my boys has been the best part of my life Deciding along the way when to let go, little by little, dreading the day they walk out into the world on their own Everyday watching them change, evolve into the great young men they are today From the moment conceived until the day i die they will always be my boys God has trusted me with their lives, nurturing them so they will survive High hopes that they will be happy with who they become Interested in their journey, i wait to hear- when they are my age if i served them well Joined as a family we have strength and peace, knowing that there is always someone to love you and be there if need Kindness shines through their smiles and lights up their eyes Leaving the nest is coming way too soon, i don't know what i'm going to do without you My life in nothing like i thought i would be; it's so much more since i brought you into the world Now i read myself to sleep, no more books that i have to repeat Over time you are growing up and i am growing old Patiently i wait for a visit or a call on the phone just to hear how you're getting along Quietly i listen as my heart rapidly beats love to hear your voice or kiss your cheek Really couldn't ask for 2 better sons; i know your not perfect but you will always be to me and i'm proud to be your mom Sticking together in good times & bad Thankful everyday for the time that we had Until i die i will always be there for you that's no lie Victory is mine, when you're on your own, productive and happy with a family of your own Wishing i could turn back time so you'd still be the little boys of mine X's & O's love ya bunches, mom. all of the time You were both truly my inspiration to be a better person everyday Zippety-do-da you're on your way!
