Fulfilled

A father fills the home with pride
And rules by which we must abide
A mother fills the heart with love
And makes the food we’re fondest of

Together they fulfill the need
and purpose for each honored deed
God fills the gaps and mends the holes
And with His grace he fills their souls

A wonderful tribute to Moms and Dads... and most of all to the grace of God.

Very nice Elizabeth.  It's too bad that there are so many families now that are not as well balanced as this.  Joyce
