As the dawning sun sets
Ends another night of rest
We wake up and begin our day
Stretching and yawning in every way
It's time for the kids to arise
It's time for us to open our eyes
Time to get ready for work
Time to find that little quirk
Time for the kids to get ready for school
For them to find all of their tools
Now we rush through breakfast
The day has approached and no more rest
We rush quickly out the door
As we hug the kids once more
As we arrive at home each night
The kids begin their little fights
It's time to fix dinner and get ready for baths
Help with the reading, the spelling, and the math
A little time for t.v. and a little talk
Or maybe even a small walk
And then it's back into bed
With another I love you said
Close our eyes and go to sleep
Another dream we dream to  keep

Crystal

QJQ:Yes they are

Larry:Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it.I know I will miss so much when my children leave home.It just seems lately there's no time for even a moment for me.Oh well my time will come soon enough, until then I revel in the wonder that my children bring to me.

Linda: I hope they were good memories.Even when I have not even one moment for em in my day, I fall into bed and smile knowing that I've given my self to my family, my children, my friends, my work, and my home and shared my heart.

My friend, I think you penned some of the most wonderful times a family has to share...the ordinary everyday life, that turns into memories that will make you smile!
Loved this...~S~

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~S~

(smiles) Yay! Oh Crystal, I am so happy that you have such a special loving family to give all your heart too, sweet friend, I believe children give us the most special memories and I dream in the future to have a family of my own to love! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Crystal, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Crystal~
A sweet penning of life's joys~
Yes, to enter slumberland 'knowing' they are all safe and sound and in angelic keep~

Nicely written dear lady~

Yes, this is the way the days go. Kinds grow up so fast, and before you know it, they are all grown. Then, they leave home. But, those precious memories are still there.

Crystal, a typical day lyrically painted.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
