I wrote this for my darling daughter Jessica for her 13th birthday this past Nov. Hope ya'll like it:-)
I AM THE WOMAN.........

I may not be the woman that carried you in my womb,
But I am the woman that will be here for you till I am
placed in my tomb.

I may not be the woman that gave you life,
But I am the woman that will be here for you
through all your strife.

I may not be the woman that your first cry did hear,
But I am the woman that for the rest of your life
will calm every fear.

I may not be that woman, that other,
But I am the woman your daddy chose
to be your Mother.

I won't run out on you or desert you,
I am the woman that as your mother
will always stand true.

I am the woman who chose to stay,
I am the woman that helped your daddy
to teach you to pray.

I am the woman that loves you so,
I am the woman that will never let you go.

I am the woman, so proud I am,
The Mother that loves you
as God did his Lamb.

Without the experiance of love where would we be? We would have no memories to cherish.
With love it brings hurt with hurt bittersweet memories.

Yes, you are, Mom! Such sincerity in these words, oh I just loved it.
