One of the wonderful ladies in my Mom of Twins group posted this today:
I saw a young mother
With eyes full of laughter
And two little shadows
Came following after.
Wherever she moved,
They were always right there
Holding onto her skirt,
Hanging onto her chair.
Before her, behind her-
An adhesive pair.
"Don't you every get weary
As, day after day,
Your two little tagalongs
Get in your way?"
She smiled as she shook
Her pretty young head,
And I'll always remember
The words that she said:
"It's good to have shadows
That run when you run,
That laugh when you're happy,
And hum when you hum-
For you only have shadows
When your life is filled with sun."
Not sure who wrote it but I sure needed a little reminder of how much I love my girls. It may have been a rough week but I am a lucky woman.

I'm stealing your whole entire post if you don't mind, and putting it on my girls blog! I loved it too...and I agree after this week, brought tears to my eyes. We're lucky to be a MOM!!! Even though someday it may not seem like it. :))
