For Sharon from Kayleigh and Bowen (they whispered it to me when I was listening to mommies tummy)


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!

That is a beautiful poem. Hey... it is one of those late nights when I am sneaking around on greasy. I remember sneaking around on Blogster late one night and running across Tony and Sharon writing love notes to one another and you hadn't even met, yet. Who would have known it would turn out soooo beautiful. Love ya both and those little ones, too. Annie :o)

Wasn't it fun watching these two - I loved Blogster's 1st Romance!!

I remember that first night you caught us posting back and forth....your blog title the next day was "middle of the night rendezvous" and you had SO many people wanting to know what you saw and who it was
