Growing Up
We sang
“You are my
Sunshine”
You found
passion
Purpose
In your life
I’m so proud of you
A nurse
Serving others
I love You
All around the world
and twice over
Every Day
May not be
A Great Day
But find
Something
Great
In every Day
Live out Loud
Laugh in the depth of your soul
Love deeply with passion
I would rather have loved and lost
Than Never have loved at all
Follow your
Heart
Believe in
God
I Can’t
Promise
I’ll be Here
For
The rest of
Your Life
But I Can
Promise,
I will Love
You
For the rest
Of Mine
God gave Me
The gift of life
He entrusted You
In my care
I am unworthy
To deserve
YOU
Children
do not come
with instructions
I tried to do my Best
I didn’t always succeed
Life is a
Process
It’s the journey
Life’s
Lessons
Realized
Learned
Better Late
Then
NEVER
A Child’s Love is
A Beautiful
Gift
From God
Offering
Spiritual healing
Mind Body and Soul
It’s a matter of
perspective
My heart is full
With Love and Kindness

Mom
My daughter has issues with me.
She says these are her feelings
so regardless,
whether the facts are not there
if that’s what she feels
then that’s her truth
I’m from an older generation
we deal on FACTS
I let it all go
I see a bigger picture
I hope one day
she gets to where I am
Dealing with her own children
Just love them no matter what
Let go of the superfluous stuff
In the end, it’s just that
Healing takes a lifetime
