What do you think this poem is about?

Twin Boys

Thank you intrusting me with twin boys
Thank you for letting me have that joy.

Thank you for keeping them healthy and strong
Thank you for giving me the strength to go on.

Thank you for every day you give us together
Thank you for me there is nothing better.

Thank you for the “happy hugs” as they would say
Thank you for all the joy they bring me each day!

Thank you God.

    Very nice way of giving God the glory and trusting Him at the same time. They (twins) must double your pleasure (most of the time) I'm sure. Great poem. Looking forward to the others.
