My CHILD

You are a part of my fleshly body.
The creation of you, came from a part of ME….
FROM MY
PHYSICAL BODY.

You were MY EGG. MY CHILD.

Your VERY FIRST home, was in the confines of
my spirit,
my soul,
my body.

I loved you from your ‎conception,
never having laid eyes on you. We grew a bond like no other two humans can.

I loved you, like I loved myself.
‎ I took care of me, so I could take care of you.
‎ I moved gingerly and cautiously,
‎I wanted to keep you safe.
‎ Every decision I made,
‎your well being was my FIRST consideration.
‎My heart was bursting at the seams with love, excitement and anticipation for you.
‎The foundation of YOU was rooted in ME.
‎YOU LIVED BECAUSE I LIVED
No one,
EVER IN YOUR LIFE,
CAN DO FOR YOU,
WHAT I HAVE DONE FOR YOU.

Not another soul can give you the unadulterated, deep-seated love, commitment, encouragement and hope that I can.
I’ve craddled you from the beginning and I’ll hold you till the end.

You are my life long investment. I consciously, meticulously, enriched your beginning with all that I had to give. I shaped and molded you.

I AM YOUR MOTHER

I AM your tour guide, to help you navigate this wilderness: pay
attention

I AM your teacher it’s my duty to teach you the ropes. I’ve fought the same fights and survived: keep your eyes on me, pay attention

I AM your cheerleader
I will root, encourage and support;
always give 100%,
never stop trying,
stay focus,
pay attention

I AM your protector
I’d walk through fire to keep you protected from the demons

I AM your safe place
When the inevitable happens and you’re wounded or hurt; I hurt too, but bring your broken pieces
I am your healer

YOU EXIST BECAUSE I EXIST
TRUST ME
LOVE ME
BELIEVE IN ME

I’ll be and do all I can for you.
You’ll always be a part of me and NO ONE can take that away.
