A Mother’s Gift, February 14, 2013 Daily Reflection

 

Picture of my pregnancy with Spencer

I wrote this 14 years ago when I was pregnant with my first child…

And to you I give my body as a warm safe place, as a harbor from the storms.

I give always to you my outstretched arms to hold you, my hand that will never let you fall.

I give to you my vision of the world to give you knowledge and trust in such a chaotic state,

My voice to soothe and calm your cries

With you I share my being, my body, my soul.

For within me you will grow and outside of me there will be a world you must one day know.

No matter space, distance, time or type of existence I will always remain with you.

Remember this always for this is a mother’s gift to her children from conception beyond death.
