MY CHILDREN’S CHILDREN

GIGGLE GIGGLE.  STOMP STOMP CRASH.  JINGLE,  KNOCK,  CLICK CLACK, BANG! 

THERE ARE LITTLE ONES IN MY HOUSE AGAIN . AND I LOVE IT. 

GIANT SMILES.  COZY CUDDLES.  TEARS.  CHEERS.  FEARS.

THERE ARE LITTLE ONES IN MY HOME AGAIN.  AND I LOVE IT.

I AM LEARNING TO SEE FROM A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE AGAIN.  BENDING.

LIFTING. LISTENING. 

READING IT AGAIN.  A TINY HAND BEGS ME FORWARD . A HUGE SMILE MY

REWARD.

THERE ARE LITTLE ONES IN MY LIFE AGAIN.  AND I LOVE IT. 

THEIR DADDY, MY SON, PROUDLY LOOKS ON .  AND HIS MOTHER PROUDLY GAZES 

BACK IN HIS DIRECTION.  MY FAMILY CLOSE BY AGAIN.  OH WHAT A BLESSING IT

IS!

COOKING.  EATING. CLEAN UP.  START OVER.  IT IS EASY TO FORGET HOW MUCH

WORK THIS CAN BE.  MY SON’S WIFE IS LOVELY . AND SHE IS EXPECTING

ANOTHER CHILD SOON. 

THERE ARE LITTLE ONES IN MY WORLD AGAIN.  AND I AM THANKFUL.

SINGING. DANCING. DRAWING. SWIMMING ! LAUGHING. WRITING. RUNNING.

INNOCENCE AND FULL ON TRUST.  THE BEAUTY OF BOTH BOYS : STUNNING. 

IT MAKES ME MISS MY OTHER SON.  IT MAKES ME MISS HIS BRIDE.  I TRULY MISS

MY OTHER BOYS.  THE THREE FILL ME WITH PRIDE.

WHAT IS YOUR TREASURE?  WHAT GIVES YOU HOPE? 

THERE ARE LITTLE ONES IN MY LIFE RIGHT NOW .  I KNOW WHERE MY TREASURE 

LIES.
