My Daughter

I’ve never deeply experienced love and joy Until; that stinkin’ cute baby girl with golden hair Big round steel blue eyes and fairest skin Took my breath away the instant I held her The joy that fills me nothing can compare That magical moment became my favorite That parental instinct just became naturally fitting My walls of protecting her sprang right up To have her in my life is the greatest gift of all She didn’t just complete me She is the every essence of my purpose My everything beautiful, rain and shine My girl My daughter Fin Chuuk 2/24/2023

I have two boys. It was after years of waiting, they came to us as late arrivals. I had always wanted a daughter. I know a daughter makes a mother's life complete . May God bless your daughter, dear Fin

Fin Chuuk
Date: 3/4/2023 1:55:00 PM

Funny, I’ve always wanted a boy. Never happen… I guess, we’ll just have to take what’s given to us and be appreciative. Thank you, Valsa :)
