I feel so lucky to be allowed to love my children - and this poem of Patricia Barley really describe my feelings:
Lovenote to my children
How do I say I love you
through the
scoldings of clean up your room,
pull up your socks (I love you),
don't spill the juice.
How do I say I love you
through the
reminders to take your bath,
brush your teeth (I love you),
don't miss the bus.
How do I say I love you
through the
nightly rituals of put down you book,
turn out the light (I love you),
go to sleep.
How do I say I love you
through the
routine of daily living -
I only hope that you can hear
between the lines.
