Thank you, Aunt Kangi's Sweethearts... for every day you live is my reason to rejoice. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There were three grew up to be Sisters and best friends Now three more walk through my door God’s blessings never end… These precious three - though not of me, woman without child... run through my veins and all their names are calling to my heart ~~ Eldest brought from youngest a Queen of strength and speed Her laugh out-glows the very sun She’s beautiful, indeed Then came our graceful flower a Rosebud tightly curled An angel’s face revealed as petals slow unfurled Now youngest brought from eldest A Princess with a sassy smile In her eyes I see my own, shared with my sister’s child They are the greatest gifts I ever have received None could ever be more loved, my darlings... my three Jessica Elyse & Emily |

Such a loving poem. Those you have written of are blessed with one such as yourself. Enjoyed. Chris "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |
