Happy Mother's Day Daughter

I was blessed to give birth 
To my sweet little girl. 
I kissed your fingers and 
Toes and cute little nose. 


I rocked you and sang 
And wiped your tears, 
I held you and loved you 
All your young years. 


Now You're a Mother 
And a fine Mother too. 
I'm again blessed to help 
raise your daughter with you! 


© 2012 Connie Marcum Wong 


Note: 
I wrote this for my daughter, Michelle, who gifted 
me with my 2 and half month old granddaughter 
Carissa who I care for while my daughter works.

So glad you sent me the picture of her Connie; what a precious little doll she is and I'm sure as she gets older and needs less sleep you will get lots of exercise! :) P S That girl you told me to contact for PFT never answered.

Too bad you can't show that adorable picture of yours to go with this gem, Connie. Thanks for visiting my most recent posts today. Could you tell the two old ones from the two new ones? I think you may be one of the very few here who has ever read nearly all my poems since you knew me since 2002!!
