A Child

A Child By Margie Anne Bernard The gift of a child is a blessing from above, placed in a parent's arms to be cherished and loved. With his or her first cry, of unspoken words comes a message so simple, 'I need to be heard'. He or she never asks for much only to be fed and nurtured with a kind gentle touch. A child will follow in your footsteps in the wisdom of your years. Please walk this child through laughter, not unanswered tears.
