Exceptional Celebration : Birth of nephew Mother's Way (The birds & the bees) by Badger_29 "When motherhood becomes the fruit of a deep yearning, not the result of ignorance or accident, its children will become the foundation of a new race" Margaret Sanger Artwork by VMarguarite at FanArtReview.com

‘Tis grand to behold       a summer breeze, hot soup when it’s cold      a laugh, a sneeze             A blossoming tree      by dawn’s early light, the buzz of a bee      in purposeful flight   Some cool lemonade      in the afternoon;  the light which shines      from a full harvest moon The languorous time of evenings' rest; a meaningful rhyme, a hummingbird's nest   But when a child      enters this world, tender and mild       the future unfurled,   It’s surely the best      occasion of all! To look on his face,      cherubic and small   You’ll suckle your son      held close to your breast, it will give you great joy                to offer your best!   Instilling good traits      you’ll teach with finesse, and open the gates      which lead to success Then tucking in bed      at the end of the day “Good night, sleepy-head”,      loving, in mother's way Recognized Author Notes I would like to express my sincere appreciation to VMarguarite for the wonderfully appropriate art.
