Can a mother boost about her daughter in here?
My daughter presented a notebook to me filled with pictures she had drawn and poems she wrote. This one gripped my heart and made me cry. I don't know about you but as a parent I worry about my children's selfconfidence, to many things can hold them back if you lack it.

Only One Of Me

By: Allyssa

There is only one of me,
No one else is like me.
Other girls are not like me,
Not my mom or my cousins.
I am not like no one else.
I am happy who I am
With only one of me.
Not two of me just one.

She sound like she has lots of selfconfidence, and wants to be her own person.

How old was she when she wrote this.

I meant to tell her age... she had just turn 8yrs old when she wrote this.

She is very much her own person.

This poem is very sweet.  Won't be long she will posting her poetry in Passions!
Your very lucky to have a daughter that can express herself so well.  I suspect she will not have a problem with self-confidence.
Now, when is Mom going to write more poetry?
See your e-mail!
