A Poem to My Baby Girls

I loved you both before you were born
You were miracles living inside of me
I felt you growing every day
I longed for the day I could hold you in my arms

I wish there was something I could have done, babies
You came too early to make it in this world
I wish I could have kept you safe
I wish I could have done more

You are my precious angels
More beautiful than anything
Holding you in my arms
Kissing your sweet faces

You are in my thoughts
Every day of my life
You are in my dreams
I dream of my life with you

You have given us a gift
And changed our lives
You have given us hope
And a love that we had never imagined

I know you’re in heaven
Take care of each other, sweet babies
Always know mommy and daddy love you
You will live in our hearts forever

I love you Alana and Alexa
You are my greatest gifts
Only for a moment I had my chance with you
And I will spend a lifetime loving you


- Love, Mommy
