Need to know that mommy is here and can scare the bad dreams away?? Then lets cuddle... Hush little baby mommy's going to take care of you..

Look at you go.. You can walk and run all over the place.. Opps you fell down let mommy see.. Need mommy kisses?? Mine you say?? How bout No!! come on doll we have go share our toys.. Bumps and bruises from falling on your unsteady feet?? Come here let  mommy kiss them and make them better.. What you are hungry?? Let mommy get you something to eat.. what you are dirty let's take a bath.. Tired and need some love?? Climb up on mommy's lap let her rock you and cuddle till all is right in the world again..

I know you are scared hon, but mommy will be right here waiting when you get off the bus at the end of the day. Don't worry you will make new friends.. Yes hon they will feed you. I know hon, but it will be ok.. It is time for you to go off to school all on your own.. Mommy loves you and will be here to feed you a snack and cuddle with you while you tell her all about your day............. Hi sweetheart!!! How was your day?? Really?? Good.. I am glad you are excited to go back tomorrow and see your new friends... No sweetheart mommy missed you too don't worry.. *no need to worry her more letting her know about the tears I cried as she left.. as she grows up I am sure there will be more*

I can't believe it you are done with elementary school and going to jr high.. I know mom is no longer as cool as she once was, but she is still here to feed you and to cuddle when being a preteen is just too much.. I love you too hon and yes I know you have to grow up sometime..

Oh wow here you are your first day of high school.. Where has the time gone?? It seems like just yesterday I brought you home from the hospital and you needed me for everything.. Now you can do it on your own.. High school will be tough hon, but mommy is still here for you.. I am praying harder than ever for you.. Oh my when did she grow up??? Where have the last 15,16,17,18 years gone?? Oh God I know that You loaned her to me, but she has reached the age where I can't always make everything better now, so God I know that You can still be so please be with her and protect her...

College.. Oh hon I am so proud of you.. What you are getting married?? Please God let her have found the ONE you have for her.. Please be with her and help her to keep You First in her life... I love you Lord and I thank You for giving me this one to love, grow, protect, nurture and teach for these years.. I know my job is not done, but becomes a bigger job now so Dear God I ask that when I can't be there that You hold them in your hands and protect them... God they are Yours...

She will never know how many prayers I said on her behalf of the tears I have cried for her, but God knows and God is in control of things.. Thank you God for entrusting me and loaning me these gifts to take care of for You.. I know you love them.. Thank You.. Do you realize that God is there for us to kiss our boo boo's and hold our hands, protect us, feed us, loves us and take care of us.. Just like we do our children, God does that for us.. Remember to take time to say thank you to God for this.. No matter what we have a Father who loves us and wants the best for us... God Is Good...

God Bless,
