Time brings you love

We are in such a rush for life and before we know it life has passed us by.
I am 70 years old (ooooh some say that is old) but I still feel as I did when 
I was young with small children enjoying the love they give and I gave back.
When I had my twins, I was in love with them before they became reality, but
I wasn't prepared for the surge of love I felt the first time I was able to hold them
all 2 1/2 lbs of them.  Yes they weighed in at 2 1/2 lbs because they were born
three months early.  They came home from the hospital when they would have
been born.  
Time has a way of giving or taking away.  I was so blessed to see our babies b
grow into adults and become responsible parents and my love today 48years in
a couple of weeks, has grown in such a way that it is difficult to explain.
Six years after the twins were born, along came our surprise baby.  She was two months
eartly but weighed in at 5 1/2 lbs.  What a beautiful baby and a delight to us all.
I thought my love for the twins could never be duplicated but I was wrong.  I thought
I would not have anymore children and God surprised us indeed.  I loved having the 
babies around and when the twins started to school I became so depressed knowing
I wouldn't have a baby around all day.
The day I found out I was to have another baby was the day I was to leave the hospital
after a serious surgery.  The Dr. came in and said I was pregnant but to go and have another
test in a couple of weeks.
In my heart I knew I didn't have to have another test, why, because God knew how much I 
wanted another child to love and bring into our family, and He did just that.
All of our children have been the Joy of our lives.  Time may pass by but our love for our 
children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren has only increased for each one of them.
Don't let Time rob you of the love around you grab hold and share your heart with someone
this is where love comes from,
My Sweetheart of 50 years in marriage still will surprises me with such tender loving moments.
Choosing to love only takes a second of looking around you to find that special love.
Have a wonderful evening and tell someone you love them before you go to sleep tonight, because,
you may not awaken the next morning to tell them how much they mean to you.
