a few poems

I'll tell her stories of how silly you were
I'll answer her questions when she's unsure
I'll make sure she always remembers your face
I'll teach her to hold your love in a special place.

You taught her tolerance and understanding...
That's something not all kids know
You taught her to accept and to love everyone...
And I know that'll continue as she grows

Mik couldn't have asked for a better mamaw & I couldn't have had a better mom
We are both very fortunate and lucky people, to have had you with us for so long.






You & I went through so much, and you never left my side
You taught me things & helped me through & never let me hide.
Raising a teen all on your own can't be an easy thing to do
But you were always honest about my dad & that taught me to be honest too.
There are things that I know that most never learn and it's because of the life that I've had
You ensured that I'd be alright loosing you by helping me through when I lost my dad.
The things that get thrown at you can sometimes be pretty rough
You knew I'd be o.k. though cause you raised me to be tough.
I love you mom and only you and I know how much
Remember though.... months ago..... you promised me you'd keep in touch.
