Incredible Poem...

I was on the blog (Taking the Road Less Traveled) of an amazing adoptive family who is currently adopting a baby girl from Taiwan. The day they started their journey, they lit two candles... one for their daughter and one for her birth mother. They wrote such a touching post and wrote this beautiful poem. It had me in tears! I am so happy to share it...

We Lit A Candle

We lit a candle, we lit one for you

But always remember, we lit two

One for a child, we don’t yet know

One for the woman in whose belly she’ll grow

She will give you life, we will help you live it

We’ll hold you forever, and her for but a minute

But in that minute, a breath in time

She will show such love, and make you mine

When you come home to us, we’ll still light two

One for your birthmother, and always one for you

~Your Mama and Daddy
