It is easy for me to remember the first moment I saw your face.
It is emblazoned in my cellular memory.
They placed you on my chest,
Naked and silent, wrapped in a royal purple towel.
We didn’t know for several minutes if you were a boy or a girl!
Now, 8 years later you create for me beautiful hearts with fireworks!
May I remember this moment as clearly as the day you were born.
Somehow, I know, based on my own history that this may not much longer be the case.
To my daughter filled with infinite Life,
Named so appropriately,
Know I love you dearly,
Even when things will surely
Begin to change soon…
After reading this poem to her, my daughter replied by saying:
“Here, mom, I made you a bunny.”

Writing out my thoughts has helped me to gain a new perspective of myself. In sharing these writings, it is my hope to help others to better understand themselves. It is my belief that with each of us who chooses this path of greater understanding of thy self, that it inspires others to do the same. This building momentum is the force that drives me to share, for in my vulnerability, I find my strength. I believe that you can also find yours there.
~~~In reading some of my posts, you will see that growth is not always pretty. It is in breaking apart and coming undone that a seed sprouts and breaks free of its own captivity. It is also out of mud that the lotus blossoms. ~~~Please join me in seeing the beauty of growth within the deconstruction of our limiting beliefs. ~~T.C.

=) Thank you, Miriam! I wish all moments were so touching and since they aren’t I’m learning to cherish them more. I hope you have a great day!

There is nothing better than a child’s love. Especially at that age. Thank you for sharing!

=) thank you for your supportive words! As I told Miriam, I’m learning to cherish those moments (maybe I need to write about the fight we had earlier, too). =) Have a great day!
