this almost makes me think you began writing as a grandma. Either that or as a mother. Wonderful, and congrats.

Have changed my words for I wrote it at 3.00 am this morn and I hope my second version has just as much impact. I wrote my poem two weeks before the birth of my first grandchild, so consumed with love was I. It is called "I bequeath to you my Teddy"... hope you like it too dear Victor.
