If not for birth, where would we be?
Still stuck inside the mama’s tummy,
First we were sunshine in the sky,
Then a little twinkle in daddy’s eye,
Now a wondrous gift for all to see!

They do have that power! Later on, when they’re 13, not so much. 😀

Stick around, it gets worse before it gets better, lol. Then, if you’re lucky, you get a grandchild and they’re the best!!

I’m starting to get that feeling! lol When they were younger, I knew everything. I must have become really dumb over the past few years. 😉

Thanks, I vowed I’d do more this year. To think a few months ago I thought I’d just write an occasional book review!

Hi. I’ve got a website featuring my own writing, but have a section for other writers’ that I like, I wondered if it would be okay to put your poem on there? I would of course credit you and put a link back to your blog. Here’s the address, http://www.writerhaven.co.uk in case you want to take a look before deciding.
