Where would I be without my parents? My wonderful Pops and Mum?
If it wasn’t for them, and their nurturing, I wouldn’t be who I am today.
They taught me how to walk, talk, live and love. Their unwavering love for my brother and me, their faith in us, has been key in helping us grow.
The love I feel for them is so strong, a bond that can never be broken. I live far from them now, since marriage, but I am still their little girl, and every time I go home, I am transported back to my childhood, even as a 41-year-old mother of 2!
You held my hand
You lifted me
With your love
You gifted me
You helped me grow
You moulded me
Your unerring faith
Emboldened me
The reflection
That I see of me
Shows not one
But all us three
For into me
You poured your souls
The strength that I
Fulfil my goals
My love for you
Will never be
Enough for you
To really see
Just how much
You mean to me
My Precious Pops
And my Mummy.

Talking of parents, I can’t leave out my parents-in-law. Though no one can ever take the place of my own parents, I have been blessed with a set of in-laws that have taken me in as their daughter, not daughter-in-law. I love them too, and not least because they created a most perfect being, my Hubby Dearest, who I love with all my heart.
