"The Favoritc Child"
Which one do love best ?" you ask
All. that would be hard TO tell.
For loving. 10 me- is an easy task.
And may love them all loo we'll:
And though they may not hc rs comcly and fair
As many you have known. =
Yet the mothers eye secs beauty and grace
In each child she can call her own.
When Jennie, our first horn. came 10 crown
The morn Of our married life.
How proud my husband was Of the child:
: How proud he was Of his wifcl
Together We watched her cunning ways.
And both for her comfort toilcd
And made SO much Of our bnby girl.
Twas n wonder shc wasn't spoiled.
And then came Belle, with her sunny face,
And her laughter so light and free:
We thought there had never been before
Such frolicsomc spritc as she;
She made no trouble about the house.
Was always SO gentle and mild.
And merry witha there was good excuse
For loving the precious child.
H,,; thcrc was Anna SO weak and frail,
She needed my constant care.
And the older children were forced TO be
Content with lesser share:
And when, 10 quiet her fretfu moods.
held her close to my brcast.
fancicd loved her most; because
understood her best.
When, later on in my welded life.
God gave me my darling boy.
| thought that my hcart-Iny mother heart
Would burst from excess Of JOY!
For the Father above had heard my prayer,
And granted my souls request:
And my precious treasure. my only son!
Oh, surely, loved linn best!
But other children compelled my care.
And he must be set aside:
And. oil. he fought for the habys place
And the comfort TO him denied!
Then he trouble came. and rcrchancc feel
A little more tenderness
For The youngest lamb of the flock, because
So soon she was fatherlcs3.
We make mistakes. and mny have failed
In lessons l s,rovc 70 ,npart:
Bu, trust that my darlings learned how dear
They were to their mothers heart.
The loyal soul from its chosen way
Not easily is bcguilcd.
And cannot tell, though I'm often asked.
Which is my favorite child.
