My Boys

God blesses us in many ways. Most of us don't realize what these blessings are. Some blessings are so huge you can't ignore them. It's what you do with the blessings that makes the differences. The Lord has abundantly showered me with blessings. I count them every day. The 2 blessings that mean more to me than anything are my two sons. My boys are the world to me. As I'm sure every parent says of their children. My life has not been the same since the day I got the news I was pregnant for the first time. They push my every button and try my every nerve but when the going gets tough, they are there with a smile or an "I Love You Mommy". They melt my heart especially when I'm in a sour mood. They make me laugh and have made me cry; not intentional of course. So I decided one day to write a poem about them. So tonight's poem is simply titled "My Boys". The greatest gift next to life itself that God could give me and my husband.

My Boys

With sweetness and innocence they start my day

With excitement and chaos no doubt

Just how could I have it any other way

These two precious boys of mine 

How they’ve laced their love into my heart

Their innocence fills me with energy

 that keeps me going when I am tired and weary.

They are gifts from God

Gifts to love,

Gifts to teach,

Gifts to hold

Gifts that will never grow old

From the moment they were inside me

I knew that the Lord had given to me

A most special gift

These are keepers that’s for sure

With loving hearts so pure

Years may have them looking old

But to me they’ll always be my babes

That forever I will hold

Just the way He commanded me.

Mathew 19:14Jesus said “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
