To my kids, Happy Valentines Day!!!

For my son and my daughter. You are both the sunrise and the sunset. And everything beautiful in between.

On a typical day we are waking up, scurrying around in the mornings to get ready and make it out of here on time. Not to be late for school or work. With the craziness of our fast paced lives, I NEVER forget what I get to go home to in the evennings or wake up to in the mornings.

Racing to get dinner done and homework checked and bathes done.... It is a fast paced life we live, but it's our love for each other that that gets us through.

I love you both so much. Sometimes I wonder if you both even realize how much I love you. And it's when I ask myself that question, I realize that I need to show you both, more.... Just how special you are to me and that I am who I am and who I strive to be, because of you both.

While my kids play rough and fight alot

I find myself forgetting

That I was once just like them

A handful, I'm admitting

They throw and kick and scream

Calling each other names

Antagonizing each other

And being ever so mean

But then there are moments

When their love is so strong

They become inseperable

And nothing is wrong

If not for my kids

I would not know what it's like

To be a mom on the edge

And break up their fights

My kids have really shown me

What it's like to truely love

If only for their kisses

And their great big hugs

I am a mom who may not have

All the answers in the book

But all I really need to do

Is take one good look

My kids, they may not know

That they are my heart and soul

For I have found out what it's like

To love, unconditional

My hand will always be there

If you should ever need me

My shoulder soft, yet, strong

For any tears of weeping

Yes, I am your mom

And I love you both so much

I will ALWAYS be here for you

No matter what may come

To my son and daughter!!!!!! I love you both so much. Happy Valentines Day.

Love,

Mom
