My Children

Beauty...resilience...timelessness...strength the facets of a diamond, each cut differently reflecting the light giving it a value. Children are a gift, each a treasure, all have a value that is beyond measure. Individuality...skill...talent...personality traits of all - each child cut differently from the other. Measured like a diamond, cut a trait apart, their strengths added together, become a family.

What a wonderful verse on the joys of having a child - so true, they are each different. I loved it!
