To my mother

Dear Mommy,

Where ever you are,
From me it's too far.
(But I've only got myself to blaim for that.)

I love you a tonne
For all the work that you've done
In raising me.

Now that I've got kids of my own
I can't see how it's done
'til my memory

Brings to my mind
How you and dad
With all the strength that you have
Do it all in the LORD.

And I love you some more
For the person you are.
I'm always happy to see
Parts of you come out in me.


Hope you're having a lovely trip!

Aww, thanks Roze, what a sweet poem.
We got to Julie and Dave's yesterday, had a lovely trip, except for the snowstorm Friday night and are having a nice time at Julie's! Have a good week, love Mom and Dad.
