A Letter to my Children

Wish I could remember

all the things you used to say.

Funny things you’d say and do,

every single day.

Each time you’d tell a story,

I’d say I should write that down.

But when the day was over,

Your words escaped somehow.

Life from your perspective

is always fresh and new.

Maybe that’s why you were sent to me,

To provide a different view.

  1. Beautiful post! It reminds me of how it’s so important to slow down and truly soak our children up to remember these precious moments!

    • Thank you so much:) I truly wish I could remember every moment! So many precious, hilarious, amazing, maddening, gleeful, joyful, crazy, calm, sleepy, snuggly, warm and fuzzy moments.
