Adoption
Not flesh of my flesh,
Nor bone of my bone,
But nonetheless,
My very own.
Never forget
For a single minute
That you weren't born
Under my heart
But in it. by Fleur Conkling Heylinger
Kisses In The Wind
I hold you in my heart and touch you in my dreams. You are here each day with me, at least that's how it seems. I know you wonder where we are... what's taking us so long. But remember child, I love you so and God will keep you strong. Now go outside and feel the breeze and let it touch your skin... Because tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind. May God hold you in His hand until I can be with you. I promise you, my darling, I'm doing all that I can do. Very soon, you'll have a family for real, not just pretend. But for tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind. May God wrap you in His arms and hold you very tight. And let the angels bring the kisses that I send to you each night. Unknown Author
Happiness is not so much in having as sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
