Christians Caring and Sharing

I've never really thought about all the tears a mother sheds....the happy tears, the sad tears. From the moment you hear the words "you're having a baby" till the time you live the unthinkable and have to give your child back to God.

Tears fall as the words are spoken
"You're having a baby".
Not knowing these are the first
of many tears to be shed.
The time is near..
tears of anticipation,
knowing the day is finally here.
The physical pain brings on more tears.
It's over...."It's a boy" you hear.
What....more tears?
Tears of happiness and love as you
look into the face of an angel.
Over the years of raising your child,
more tears.
Happy tears....Sad tears
The first step, the first time you hear "mama".
Watching as their face lights up on Christmas morning.
They rush into your room...
"mama, santa came".
Tears when they look at you with love
even though you just scolded them.
First day of school...they look so scared.
You turn around...you don't want them to
see the tears. Your baby is growing up.
All the bumps and bruises....sraped knees and elbows.
Your tears...because your baby is hurting.
Tears when he looks into your eyes and says
"It's all better mama"
Your tears as you comfort in times of disappointment.
Tears of pride as you watch him grow into a young man.
"I'm in love mama, I'm getting married"
Tears....you realize your little boy has become a man.
"We're having a baby mama"
"It's a boy".....you look into the eyes of another angel,
your grandson.
Tears......
"There was an accident, he's gone".
You hear, but you don't believe.
No tears..it's not real.
But the tears come as you face the fact
that it isn't a dream....he's gone.
Happy tears...so many years ago as you looked
at the face of an angel on earth.
Sad tears...you look into the face of a true angel.
He's at home with God now...
Does that stop the tears?
The tears never go away...you still love, you still miss,
you still get angry...you're still alive.
Will death be the end of a mother's tears?
Even in death I know there will be more tears.
Tears of great joy and happiness...
Looking into the face of an angel...
"Welcome home mama"

In loving memory......

Thank you God for the 23 years I had with him.
Thank you God for the reassurance that one day I will see him again.
Thank you God for my other sons...Sean and Noah.

GOD BLESS US ALL....
