The moment I heard your cry I knew you were mine Sending thanks to God most high As your eyes began to shine An angel bestowed to me To care for and love Finding a home in my heart eternally As sent pure from him above Each day you grow and live My love grows stronger still Striving each day to give So much that you overfill Look in my eyes and you will see As my heart opens...hear me say My angel daughter...a gift to me I love you sweetheart...in every way *For Katrina* [This message has been edited by Butterflies_dont_cry (edited 10-17-2000).] |

Butterfly....this is just so beautiful. I know that Katrina shall always treasure these words from your heart. I can't wait to see you take up JM's challenge, it should be most interesting. Once again this is so beautiful, and special, take care my friend! "The heart and soul have no illusion of boundries when friendship is the quest" ~ My Angel. |

Tis the love of the sweetest mother I know kissed of heart and hugged from angels on high There are mom's and mommies and mothers aglow But none with your pureity my sweet butterfly The love in your tone and all that you show The tender caring in your proudest "mom" sighs Your fire for her happiness as you watch her grow Brings the sweetest tears as this cowboy cries Holly, I know of no other mother that outshines the love you have for both of your children and I know that she will forever cherish this piece from you. It is without a doubt the sweetest read of yours ever and so deservingly so. I could go on and on but will just say to all out there...I KNOW for fact of her love and sincerity in this piece. |
