Mother's Day 2014

you will never have this day
with your children again.
tomorrow, they'll be a little
older than they were today.
this day is a gift.
breathe and notice.
smell and touch them;
study their faces
and little feet and pay attention.
RELISH THE CHARMS
of THE PRESENT.

enjoy today, mama.
it will be over before you know it.
