The door creaks open, knob twisting under her palm, she yanks the key from the hole.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! A beautiful chorus from her three young men.
There is a sign strung above the entry way of the hall.
It's purple, gold, green and blue,
Carefully colored and crafted by six little hands.
Her heart swells to bursting.
They built well wishes with their leggo's, they reverently bring each combination out.
They hug her around the waist and shoulders.
The smaller ones with their faces smashed against her abdomen and back, the eldest with his broad shoulders, nestles his face in the crook of her neck.
Ahhhh.
She breathes in this moment, stores it for forever.
This is her grand reward for her role in their lives.
She is grateful for the honor of being their mother, amazed at the consideration, amazed at the thoughtfulness.
Tears stream from her eyes, she kisses the tops of their heads.
What a beautiful family. |
