Through My Eyes

THROUGH MY EYES

I wish that you could see what I see through my eyes. I see three young
women, all practically grown, yet still so very young in heart and
mind. I see beauty and wonder as you experience all the wonderful
things in life -- love, anger, disappointment, disillusion, and life's
ups and down's. I wish that you could see the pride I feel whenever we
are together. If you only could see the pride I feel when I see the
compassion in each of you, compassion for the rest of the world; for
each other, for family and pets. I see each of you trying to let go,
each time going a little further away from me, but not yet ready to let
go completely. I am a little afraid that when that day
comes, when you are all ready to go off completely on your own, that I
will not be ready. I hope that you will always need me the way in some
smal way or another because I truly need you. I hope I never disappoint
you or let you down in any way and that I can always be there for you
in whatever way I can. I hope that someday you will truly know how deep
the love I have for you is. I hope someday you too will see and feel
what I see and feel for you, for your own children. I wish for you to
see what I see through my eyes.

I wish that you could see what I see through my eyes. I see a woman who
has given all that she is to me. I see someone who has guided me,
taught me right from wrong, shared my laughter, cried my tears. I see
someone who has loved me through the years unconditionally. I see
someone who means so much to me that I cannot bear to think of the day
you will no longer be around. I see good times and bad gone by and
those yet to come. I see the woman that I always wanted to be and hope
that I have not disappointed you. I feel so much love and respect for
you in me that I hope you can see it in my eyes whenever I look at
you.

I wish that you could see what I see through my eyes. A brother who has
always been there for me. Someone to talk to, to share things with, and
now a father of your very own sons. I feel so much pride in you, in
what you have accomplished, in the wife you have chosen, in the sons
you now have. I wish that someday you will see in his eyes what I have
seen in my own children's
eyes. If I ever had a wish for anyone in this world, it would be for
you -- that you always remain just as you are now. You are truly a
friend, confidant and inspiration to me and I love you very much. I
wish that you could see what that through my eyes.

I wish that you could see what I see through my eyes. From a little
girl to now a mother yourself. From the little girl I used to sit and
watch scary movies with to a grown woman so beautiful, inside and out,
that I can feel nothing but love and respect for. I wish that you could
see how I feel about you, every time we are together. There seems to be
a connection between us that is more than just hereity -- there seems
to be mutual love and respect. I wish that you could see what I see in
through my eyes.
