Life's Sweetest Things

The sweetest thing that ever happened to me Is very easy to determine. There is a tie though, of two things, you see alleviating pandemonium. When I got married was definitely the first To get my heart a pumping. But when I first held my babies, each one, man that was really something. I can’t convey the feelings I have inside, I just don’t know the whys, Words aren’t adequate to fully describe why tears just flooded my eyes. © Jun 21 2010 For Tirzah’s “Sweetheart” contest
