Children Are A Gift |

White snow landscapes covering ground yet within is such beauty to be found. Children building men made of snow eyes lit up and little faces aglow. Listening to laughter as they play bringing happiness into the day. Sneaking up, oh no, snowball fight playing until the absence of light. Rushing in with noses red cocoa and toast, now they're fed "Mom your the best, hope you know can we go back out to play in the snow?" Children are a gift from God above fulfilling lives with joy and love. Little form asleep on feather bed God, thank you for her , is all I said. On the wings of words our spirits fly, and our souls are free. ~me~ |

Victoria, Irie, Charisma, thanks so much. They can be a trial, but most definately a joy. I hope we all can stop and take the time to be thankful. And Charisma, I love the picture, thank you. ~D~ On the wings of words our spirits fly, and our souls are free. ~me~ |

Eagle One, Greeneyes, Coco, and Cassandra thank you all so much. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't thank God that I have something so special in my life, and pray that I never take that for granted. Thanks all.... On the wings of words our spirits fly, and our souls are free. ~me~ |
