There's one sad truth in life I've found
While journeying east and west -
The only folks we really wound
Are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.
~Ella Wheeler Wilcox~
This blog is in honor of my two sons who remind me daily
the true meaning of love and the commitment I made when they came into my life.

Yolanda, love the poem and feel the emotion. Congratulations on your contract! So excited for you! Can't wait to read the finished product. :-)
That is a great poem - and sadly so true!!
I'm sure your sons will always look back on this and smile :)
