I remember the moment I first felt you,
Moving silently in my womb,
The sudden wash of emotion,
As into my world you did cocoon,
9 long months I carried you,
Hour's of labour pain,
It was worth every minute,
As my tear drops fell like rain,
I immediately fell in love with you,
So proud of what I'd done,
My greatest life achievement,
I had produced you son,
I now had responsibility,
Far greater then any other,
The most important job of all,
Now I was a mother,
I made a silent pledge to you,
One I'd always keep,
I would keep you safe from harm,
I said as I watched you sleep,
Now I sit and watch you grow,
Can pick you out in any crowd,
And the only thing you'll hear me say,
You did your mummy proud!!!!!!!!!
