Daughter, Do You Suppose ~
~*Mom*~

Daughter, do you suppose
you'd like to reminisce ?
How about the first day
I felt the movement of you in bliss

How treasured 'neath my heart
you lay quiet in heart-beating sighs
Then suddenly there you were
before my very eyes

Of beauty born in soft adorn
my favorite shade of pink
I placed first kiss of motherhood
upon your baby soft cheek

Through the years of memories
that often spring to mind
None is more special than knowing
first child - you were mine

So upon your birthday
I'd like to thank you so
For the special gift of motherhood
on me you did bestow

~Happy Birthday, Tracie~
You are still a treasure, dear
Just one more chance for me to say
You grow lovelier with each year

I love you~

August 4, 2001

Mysteria~
From the baby I first held - to the woman she's become,
she has filled my heart with her joy.

RWood~
I think she will have a wonderful day.
She is a pure delight.

Charisma~
Thank you.  She sees the love every day.
Mom's are like that, ya' know ?

SoaringEagle~
She is lovely, inside and out.
As I watch her working with special needs children
I see her giving the love she has received.

DecaFlame~
She is wonderful !  The joy is mine !

Athena4~
The love goes beyond the words on the page
and is returned on each new day.

*Thank you all for your added greetings for her birthday !
I will share them with her.

This is very beautiful and deeply touching, what a wonderful birthday gift for her  

If my mother wrote a poem like this for me I would cry happy tears all day and treasure it always.

I feel that the best gift is not always expensive store-bought ones, but the ones that come from the heart, that's the sincerest of beauty and love

Having two sisters with very young babies, I think that they would love to see this. I'm putting this in my library until I can get better access to send them this link.   This is beautiful, Marge!

Nice, nice, nice Marge, I'll bet she loved it. What a great tribute. There is no greater love than that between mother and child.

Throw your heart out in front of you
And run out to catch it.

Marge-
   Bet you thought I forgot about this
   beauty didn't you?
   Nope...not me! LOL
   Just waiting to reply ON her birthday.
   I've said it before, and I'll say it again...
   your children are very fortunate to have
   a mother as loving as you.
   This is the most beautiful birthday
   gift that any child could ask for.
  
   Happy Birthday, Tracie!  

   Love and hugs,
