I’m sending this to a special friend that is having problems and wanted to share it with all my friends that are moms. Just remember that even though they say and do things that just break your heart they truly do love you. I thought it was really touching and hoped it might help one mom among you find some peace with your children.

MOM

I told you I didn't love you with a smile on my face
The smile quickly faded when I saw your heart break.
From internal bleeding, your eyes turned red
As red as the handprint you wanted to leave on my cheek
The cheek you use to kiss when you tucked me in' I remember your smile then.
I was ungrateful for anything you did for me
The sacrifices
I took your love for granted
Wiped it off like lint on my shirt
Now you're hurt
I take it back
All that I've said
I don't mean none of it
I love you Mom
More than words can say
Thank you for everything
Everything

I am still keeping up with the Big Picture program. I’ve got to get some pictures taken and try to get ahead this weekend since next week I’ll be with my mom while she recoups from surgery.

Since I'll be staying with her and she doesn't have very good web access not to sure how often I'll be able to post. But, I promise to do my best.

Lots of love to all,

Jane
