New Book Cover and Sing for Joy

“Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when dreams come true at last, there is life and joy.”

~Proverbs 13:12.

My Joy

My Joy, my Valentine, born in my heart,
My priceless treasure from a world apart.

My Joy, my daughter, who fills me with love,
May God richly bless you from his storehouse above,

My Joy, who showers me with hugs and sweet things,
Pictures I cherish, who tells me her dreams

My Joy, a gymnast, a star in third grade,
My Joy, a sweet kiss, and “I love you” each day.

My Joy, with little hands who fixes my hair when I’m hot,
My Joy, who forgives me when I blow up like a steam pot

My Joy, may you grow in God’s love every year,
And each Valentine’s Day, we will always be nearer and dear,

My Joy, eat lots of chocolate, draw pictures, and have fun.
For our journey together has only just begun

My Joy, my daughter, whom I thought I would never see|
I’ll love you forever, you shall always be

My Valentine wrapped in hugs and a kiss,
From your mom, our lazy cats, our loud dogs, and your big sis.
