I remember you: new
baby powder smell
tiny ears like velvet
cries like a lamb
and here is your
baby daughter
in my arms.
So sweet.
Thanks Nishi
I am old I have been there I appreciate your giving a voice to my feelings
My pleasure.
Another or your first?
Niece’s baby. How many accounts have you got? lol
A few grand children!
Lovely. I can relate to this…
🙂
I hope to experience this someday…..
So far I have 7 great-nieces and 3 great-nephews. My first great-niece arrived when I was 17.
Makes my heart ache just thinking about it. Thank you for this sweet poem.
Thank you, Lorien.
Oh my goodness, Shawn. Tears! Lovely, lovely!
Thanks, Debra.
Lovely. A seventeen-year-old could not have been overly impressed to have become a great aunt!
Well, I’d become her aunt when I was 3, so it didn’t bother me so much. It was worse that she was so young to be a mom.
awee.. cute
Thanks.
That was such a blessing to read.
Thank you.
So sweet and lovely. Taking me back to when my twins were newborn.
Twins! You had your work cut out fro you!
