Children

Evette
Children are blessings from God
Every parent must know
Lessons learned every minute
That helps families grow.

The job is not easy
Raising our children every day
We do what is needed
Anxious for graduation day.

We have to stay strong
With guidance from the Man above
Always on our knees
Having unconditional love.

One day your parent's presence
Believe me, you will miss
There will just be memories
For you to reminisce.

Parents deserve to be honored
While they are still here
Children should show appreciation
For those hectic years.

    What a wonderful poem with great sentiments. Having a 10 month old daughter makes you think about things you may not otherwise. I love this and with your permission I would like to print it and have it somewhere in our home!
