I stand at the mirror and what do I see,a girl that want to become the most beuatiful girl that anyone has seen.

Today she came home queit and a little sad.

Mom am I fat? she asked.

With a stroke of her cheek I say you are beautiful and when you are a women you will look different.

How do I help her see what I see?

The shapes are different and the colors changed, but hidden inside the girl is still my baby, who has already changed.

Time is on her side, but working agianst me.

I stand at the mirror, but I refuse to see.

dedicated to my beautiful cacooned daughter who will be a butterfly before my eyes.

A wonderful dedication, Igina.

Have you ever suggested to her that she might want to write her feelings out? Or does she already do so? If she does, share with her your writings, and learn together that time is good to us all, when we work at it together.
