Thrice,
I carried you in my womb
and miraculously,
you grew
when I thought their would be no room
Every kick you dealt
made my heart melt
Every ultrasound
made my love
more profound
every stretch mark
strung you closer
to my heart
Every time I hold you
I think of everything you could do
Every time you kiss me
I think of everything you could be
Every time you say mommy
I think of how you grew in me
Every time you cry
I wanna know how, why
and what I can do
to help you get by
"I love you"
I can now say with ease
and every night
I pray for you
from my knees
for God to keep the devil at bay
and the trouble away
for you to have wealth
measured not only by money,
but by physical and mental health
for you to learn your lessons
and to recognize true blessing
for you to know love
because there is nothing above
I never knew
I could love this hard
or this many
But because of you
my heart has grown plenty
Three little heart beats
I felt in my breast
I wish I could've kept you there
safe from the world
and all her mess.
I love you babies

I felt this. Sometimes we get all caught up in the ways of the world and fail to realize that there are children who still have to grow up in this often times painful society.
ur kids are absolutely beautifullllllll!
