Today I kissed an angel
I knew it from the start
The first time my angel smiled at me
I gave away my heart

Today I kissed an angel
This angel child of mine
Though not of my creation
My child by God's design

Today I kissed an angel
My heart is dancing wild
Our family, by a miracle
Blessed by our angel child

by Brenda Meece (?)

Mother Love...
"But, then, there's a cry that's the saddest of all.
In fact, it's unlike any other.
It comes from a deep, empty place in your heart
That can only be filled by a mother."

...from 'Shaoey and Dot'
