My DD has been studying poetry in school. They've had to write poems in all sorts of different styles. This is hwat I found in her notebook as I was finally unheaping the table. (It's a horizontal surface so it builds up quickly!) This brought tears to my eyes and I had to share it.

Kinds of moms like mine are
Lovely in a beautiful sort and always
Make dinner that's real good and
Never leave my side
I love her lots.

There's a bright side to every day.


Grapes are versatile. Grapes can be sour, sweet, sublime as wine and fabulous even when old and dried out.

Me: BS
XCH: Clueless
2-DS: Bigger than me
1-DD: Now also bigger than me!

5/6: Personally served CH with divorce papers
6/6: CH F? wants to time to see if M can be saved
7/6: FCH reenters our lives to work on marriage but secretly signs papers to start divorce...what's that about?
Mediation set for November
Final dissolution in January 2007.

Don't think you've never been blessed when you have that kind of love. Even if you're husband doesn't recognize your worth someone does.

How's your plan A going?

Grapegirl - I hope this doesn't spoil your thread but it seemed an appropriate place to post what my eldest daughter wrote. Dedicated to her dad. Found in her drawer and cried over by the two of us.

You do what you want
You don't give a damn
Tear me apart
Look who I am

Breakaway slowly
If only I could
Think of me now
You know that you should

That word meant unity
That word meant trust
That word means now nothing
Swept away like dust

Ripping me up
Deep down inside
Hard to take it on
I know I've tried

Don't just take me
To throw me away
Though you have gone
I'm going to stay

Crying under my breath
Turning to someone to comfort me
Nothing will ever be fun
You took it away

I'm not just a shadow.

She's a quiet girl carrying a lot of hurt with so much courage. TT

If he slit his wrists, I'd be even more in the myre. No, I didn't give it to him. I'll save it for Father's Day. TT
