Belonging Together


One of the worst things
that ever happened to me
was when my sweetheart
went back to Chicago
to raise her children.
Still I wouldn't have
it any other way.
A mother and her children
belong together.

James,

That was a very wise thing to do.  Children need a mother figure more than anything else.  Natural mothers are the best.

Hearty laughter here, my friend...I read it as a blessing not a tragedy....a little tongue-in-cheek so to speak...at least that's how I would have written it.

If it was otherwise with you...woe be you...still, I have to laugh.
