I’ll love my mother all my days,
For enriching my life in so many ways.
She set me straight and then set me free,
And that’s what the word "mother" means to me.
I hate it when the girls on our soccer team ask why we don't have the same last name. What do I tell them, Daddy?
Every time they call my name over the intercom at school, I think of how I'm not your real daughter. Why can't I have the same last name as you?

Finding our true self is an important key to finding the answers many of us seek. Awareness of our authentic self broadens our world, increases our vision, unlocks our fullest potential and opens us to possibilities we never thought of or imagined. We become aware of the many forces at work in our lives -- both seen and unseen. We acknowledge these forces and strive to understand them, find our place among them and work with them, not against them.
Once we accomplish this, a deeper appreciation and awareness of the world and the events that unfold is achieved.
"The cause of securing our country is not complete. But tonight, we are once again reminded that America can do whatever we set our mind to. That is the story of our history, whether it's the pursuit of prosperity for our people, or the struggle for equality for all our citizens; our commitment to stand up for our values abroad, and our sacrifices to make the world a safer place."
"Let us remember that we can do these things not just because of wealth or power, but because of who we are: one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
"Thank you. May God bless you. And may God bless the United States of America."
I "Stumbled Upon" this cute little basket left over from Easter! It is now officially designated as The Daddy Basket....
I have decided I will place all cards from the ex and his family in this cute little color coordinating storage bin until they at least acknowledge my plea's or pretend that I exist!
Oh yeah...those are Easter cards!
Should I share this with THE EXES or just stick to sharing with the world??
