While we try to teach our children about life, our children teach us what life is all about. ~ Angela Schwindth

When someone dies, you don't get over it by forgetting; you get over it by remembering, and you are aware that no person is ever truly lost or gone once they have been in our life and loved us, as we have loved them. ~

A little faith will bring your soul to heaven . . . A great faith will bring heaven to your soul. ~ Charles Spurgeon

. . . Some people just come through our lives to bring us something; a gift, a blessing, a lesson we need to learn, and that's why they're here. He taught you something, I'll bet, about love, and giving and caring so much about someone . . . that was his gift to you. He taught you all that and then he left. Maybe he just didn't need to stay longer than that. He gave you the gift, and then he was free to move on . . . he was a special soul . . . You'll have that gift forever. ~ Danielle Steele

Baby's Choice

Did you ever think, dear Mother, as the seeds of me you sowed,
As you breathed new life inside of me and slowly watched me grow,
In all your dreams about me, When you planned me out so well,
When you couldn't wait to have me there inside your heart to dwell,
Did you ever think that maybe I was planning for you, too,
And choosing for my very own a mother just like you?
A mother who smelled sweet and who had hands so creamy white,
A tender, loving creature who would soothe me in the night?
Did you ever think in all those days while you were coming due,
That as you planned a life for me ~ I sought a life with you?
And now as I lay in your arms, I wonder if you knew
While you were busy making me, I was choosing you!
