He came to me
arms open wide--
"I love you mom"
he said with pride.
"and," he said,
"I'm not afraid,
that all my friends will know."

And nothing, nothing
can compare...
no song as sweet,
no rhyme so fair...
He came to me
arms open wide--
and kissed me.

My, how I have grown.

Awe S'en...this is so filled with a mother's
love and joy...the story that you can tell
in your weaves just takes my breath away...I
could feel those tears as they welled in
your heart...beautiful work my dear friend~

Oh, Serenity~
How sweet and how poignant.
Aren't we just the luckiest ladies in the world ?
Love you, sweet mom.

... Yeah - this rocks - I love the way you've grown - and though no parent - I've seen the growth. Cool-piggies lady!

Read my Words.
Read my Face.
Don't just look at either.

Bows to you.

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love
