Unexplained Joy

I have had many simple Joys and blessings in my Life. 

I keep many memories of those special Joys close to my heart.

Some times my heart opens up to an unexpected moment 

as if God is giving me an exquisite gift.

 And what God gives me is never lost...

it is kept in my heart forever. 

One of the sweetest Gifts God gave me...

is my children.

These are my Children

The treasure of memorable moments 

are filled with that of tiny hands 

and tiny feet, 

of quiet times together, 

of warm and Loving hugs and kisses, 

of holding on to a small hand,

and of letting it go so they could grow. 

My eyes have seen a glimpse of God, 

through watching my children grow. 

I'm sure God has laughed with me 

when ever I have laughed 

with my children and 

God must know the simple delights 

of being a parent, 

because I am His child. 

One of the sweetest gifts 

that life can bring, 

is when you know the plans 

that God has made for your children 

are unfolding before you 

and you know 

He holds eternity in His hands.
