For My Boys

I'm just a cheesy poet, who loves her kids and hope they know it! 

(Actually, I'm not a poet at all. These just came to me out of the blue one night.)

"I Love You, Braden"

I love how you are always growing,

Every day it keeps on showing.

I love your colorful preschool art,

And your stickers on your chart.

I love your passion for your cars,

My dreams for you reach beyond the stars.

I love your cuddles, your kisses, your hugs, 

And your latest interest in all those silly bugs.

I love your funny stories, 

And how you are learning to do "chor-ies."

I am blessed to be your mother,

You are such a great big brother.

I love your super silly ways,

I pray each day they never stray.

I love absolutely every thing,

What joy to me you will forever bring.

Two peas in a pod, you and me,

I'm blessed to have you for all eternity.

"I Love You, Travis"

I love our journey, its just begun,

You and I will have so much fun.

I love your precious goos and coos,

And when you play with my tennis shoes.

I love each day, something new you try,

It breaks my heart to see you cry.

I love how your face lights up when you smile,

 And when you nap a long, long while.

I love the way you splish and splash, 

The moment I put you in your bath.

I love your deep, dark brown eyes,

 You seem grown beyond your years; so wise.

I love your sweet baby kisses,

And the way you "help" me do the dishes.

I love your speedy crawl,

 And the way you and brother like to brawl.

I love you, my little ten-month-old

How privileged I am to see your life unfold.

I love our time together

I love it now, more than ever.
