MY DEAR DAUGHTER







kim

"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
 but by the moments that take our breath away."


The following poem is one that my daughter, kim
wrote for "her" daughter.  I am soooo proud of her
and all of her efforts to get her life back on track.





My Dear Daughter



Daughter of mine, I love you so much.
I can't wait to give you,
once again, a moms touch.
I messed up with you,
now it's time to make things right.
I will kiss you and hug you,
and rub your head at night.
I am sorry dear, for the things I have done.
Now you will notice, a new and improved mom.
No more drinking beer, and doing drugs.
Like I said before, it's only time for hugs.
Things we never done before, we're gonna do.
You just say, "when and where",
and I will be there for you.
I just want you to know,
for the things we have been through.
I will never let you down again,
and Miranda, MOMMY LOVES YOU!
