I first saw this poem when I was about 14. It was in a book called “Heart Throbs” published in 1905. I have loved this poem all my life, and I am now 91. I am about to give the book to my great-granddaughter, but was sorry to part with the poem. And then my granddaughter found the poem for me on the Internet!

My husband sent me the link to this poem today, and it touched me deeply. We have 7 lovely children of our own, and believe that each one is a precious gift to our marriage. How beautifully Ethyl Lynn Beers expressed the love of parents and how that love makes you willing to endure any sacrifice. Thank you.
