Daughters

The wonderful sounds of cries when their born The happy tears we shed at first sight A newborn daughter we'll cherish For life and for evermore To watch her live and grow To watch her marry And hopefully When time comes To give Birth

Dropping by to say congratulations on your winning work. So nice to see it in the winners' list. Way to go. A son is a son 'til he takes a wife, but a daughter is a daughter is a daughter for the rest of her life. Sara K

I have three, I can definitely identify with this one Charles... although we are okay if they decide children are not for them. I hope you've been okay :)

Charlie, you have a heart of gold. I only have one daughter, my biggest mistake.
