What it’s all about: Five Sentence Fiction is about packing a powerful punch in a tiny fist. Each week I will post a one word inspiration, then anyone wishing to participate will write a five sentence story based on the prompt word. The word does not have to appear in your five sentences, just use it for direction.
The word today is WORDS FROM http://lilliemcferrin.com/five-sentence-fiction-words
Daughter ‘B’ #1
I hold you in my arms my little one and watch as your eyes flutter, your mouth shaped in an ‘o’.
I gaze at your incredibleness and inhale your baby smell.
I envelope your tiny hand amongst my fingers, with a grip so tight you cling, never wanting to release me, I feel the same within.
I will protect you and adore you from this night till end of time and words simply aren’t enough to tell the world you’re mine.
From the moment that your gurgled to your little baby sighs, the word that struck into my heart, is the day that you said mum.
Daughter ‘K’ # 2
For those wondering yes both girls, both in blue (pale blue) and yes K is wearing what B did 🙂 Hope you enjoy.
Ramblings From A Mum 
VERY TENDER and emotional words. Well done.
I’ve already posted my response on all of my sites. I feel this prompt will elicted the most response we’ve ever received.
Thank you sweety. I think you are right – there is much to choose from within this WORD 🙂
Beautiful, heartfelt and sincere. Every parent should know exactly what you mean. I do. PS, only dreaming…maybe more, will email if find address, should be there.
Why thank you, glad you didn’t feel too consumed in the mushiness, but you are right every parent would understand…you now have me intrigued.
Very tender and evocative for so many of us mums.
I enjoyed reading your words, left me feeling warm and happy.

Thanks you so much again Dee, it gives me as an ‘everyday’ writer encouragement to hear such lovely words. Appreciate you reading 🙂 x
Simply lovely.
Cute and mushy 🙂 but thank you for reading and commenting Ang 🙂
Is cute and mushy a bad thing? I’ve always been partial to both and believe the world could use a wee bit more. Maybe it’s because I’m a mother of four, but I love this little ditty. Cute & mushy FTW! So. THERE. 😉
I remember all of those feelings, smells, and words you expressed. Lovely.
take us backkkkkk, please take me backkkk 🙂 Thanks beautiful xx
this is a lovely way to record that first word;)
I thank you my sweet, I actually have an old ‘tape’ with recordings of when one of them daughter B was very very little, I must get it put onto a disc, makes my heart melt. xx
you are so good to get that on tape…I always said I should have, but never did
Thanks Ang yes I am so glad I did, moments that would be lost to our memories.
Ok Ang I spat out my mouthful of tea 🙂 Thanks hun x Mother of 4? My thoughts are with you 😉
*smiles* …they look soooo angelic when they are little….why do they have to grow up!
I have asked myself many many times 🙂 xx
I did enjoy this. How precious our children are to us, and though mine are 28 and 30, that love has only grown more intense over the years… and now I have 7 grandchildren, and I’m expecting 2 more… Children and grandchildren are a great blessing and joy, and I enjoyed reading about yours. 🙂
Blessings,
Cheryl
Hello and thank you for your kind thoughts. My girls are now 26 and 30 (I have written birthday tributes on previous posts). I am longing for the day when I can hold my first grandchild in my arms. Appreciate your kindness Cheryl.
From ‘o’ to ‘mum’ – beautiful. Your love shines through.
