"Children are God's blessing,
given out of love_
Delightful little treasures,
sent from up above."
~MASH~
" Little Handprints"
Little handprints on my walls,
left there by children, oh so small.
There was a day when I would fret,
clean them off and then forget.
Now I touch them in my mind,
Wishing that just one of them I'd find.
They are all so long since gone away_
Their children now with finger paint do play.
I see them everywhere I look_
I see their mother and read her like a book.
I long to tell her "leave them there"
for one day you'll remember the
memories you share.
then you'll wish you didn't care.
I hold my tongue as mothers must do_
for raising your children and keeping your
home is all up to you.
When they come to Grandma's house and
make a really big mess_
all I can say is "Oh God, how I am truly blessed."
