I Would Not Change A Thing About You

From the first time that I saw you 
And you were handed into my waiting arms
I was awed by how perfect you were
So sweet with babyish charms.

The years have come and gone
Oh so swiftly  have they flown
And these years I've been your mom
Are the happiest I've know.

I treasure every moment
I love the things you say and do
And still I find in this heart of mine
I would not change a thing about you!

Happy Valentines Day  to my daughter
My joy and treasure you will always be
And I am forever thankful
That God sent you to me.

Thena

You Are...

In case you do not know
Or in case you can't see
How much I love you
And how dear you are to me...

You are my best friend
The music to my words of praise.
Only my calendar of life
You are my holidays!

You are the husband
That I always hoped I'd find.
You are my sweetheart always
You are my Valentine!

You are the reason for my being
You are the ornaments
On my Christmas tree
I am blessed beyond all measure
Having you to share your love with me!
