When you were tiny babies,

I knew the world would be so cruel.

I would imagine myself wiping your tears

and trying to mend your heart whenever I needed to.

I would wish that you would never get hurt,

even though it is inevitable that you will.

With every growing second, I became your safety net each time that you fell.

I prepared and prepared myself for tough times and talks.

I cleaned up scraps and iced up bruises

each time you climbed, ran, tripped or fell on your playful walks.

Every time you cry my heart breaks a little,

Even when you throw tantrums and the lessons still need to continue.

Giving birth to you was so painful, I thought for sure I would die before I pushed you out,

But if I was given a choice, I would do it again and again, without a doubt.
