Until I see you again

In February when we went to the princess tea,
we each received, before leaving, a poem which

I would like to share with you.

Until I see you again
Oh child, precious one
Let your life shine like the sun
But you say " How long 'til I can come home
"Til can rest in you arms again"
And I say 'Not long but don't miss this life and I'll be
Waiting 'til then"

Live with the wonder of all a child
Pray with your arms thrown open wide
Love with a love that has no end
Until I see you again

Oh child, precious one
With each breath know you are loved
But you say "How long 'til I can come home
"Til I can rest in your arms again"
And I say " not long but don't miss this life and I'll be
Waiting 'til then"

Live with the wonder of a child
Pray with you arms thrown open wide
Love with a love that has no end
Until I see you again.

A Belle's Beauty Secrets

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you will
never walk alone, for the Lord is always by your side.

Remember if you ever need a helping hand, you will
find one at the end of your arm.

As you grow older,
you will understand that you have two hands,
one for helping yourself, and the second for helping others.
