Here are a couple poems that I found a long time ago in some forgotten magazines that I hope you will enjoy. *S* A Baby Is ... A baby is a lilliputian boat on Mother's sea...
What Is A Daughter? She is the person who is going to carry on what you have started in this world. She is going to sit where you are sitting now, and when you are gone, attend to those things which you think and believe are important. She is going to take over your committees, your P.T.A.'S, Rosary Circles, Bridge and other clubs. She is going to marry your son, and she is going to rock the cradles that hold your grandchildren. She is going to share in the control of your cities, state, and nation. She is going to have a voice in your churches, your civic activities, your schools, universities, and corporations. She is going to be in charge of your natural resources. How she pursues a full and rewarding life depends on the direction she is learning now. Her individual search for happiness will be determined by the set of values she adopts in forming her creeds and philosophies. All your work is going to be judged, praised or condemned by her. Her future is in your hands, but Your reputation and Your future are also in her hands. She may have caused you grief, joy, irritation, satisfaction, embarassment and genuine delight, but she is your daughter, and you must love and listen to her always.
