Sometimes when I watch you play Having so much fun I realize that you do not notice That you are often the only one All the kids you play with Are with their mom and dad Many with brothers and sisters Two things you do not have Your daddy, he loves you But he can’t be here This isn’t his weekend To be with you, my dear So we go alone… Christmas parties and such We laugh and have fun But the pain is too much They have little stickers For all the kids names But they never know Our last names aren’t the same Some people, they stare I’m used to that part They think we are alone But I know in my heart… You have a wonderful daddy You are the center of his life We love you together Even though I’m not his wife You have a Nanny and Pop-Pop Aunts and Uncles galore Tons of cousins to play with What kid could want more? So if you see the people stare Remember that you are the best Because there is an entire village of people Who love you and know you are blessed!

I enjoyed your poem and it's sweet sentiment. I raised a daughter by myself, and know how you must be feeling.. it's great that you have family support. Keep up the good work.. Thunder |

This is lovely, and very true for so many people now. It is a complicated world we live in. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

My dear sweet daughter, have I told you enough how proud I am of you? You are raising Talon so beautifully. He is such a dear sweet grandson. I admire your courage and your principles, most of all the beauty of your love for your son. Beautifully written poem as always. I love you, Mom Belief is a truth held in the mind; faith is a fire in the heart. Joseph Fort Newton |

Hello, and this is beautiful. Never make an excuse for being a lone parent. You are giving more love than a lot of 2 parent "families". Enjoy the time you have together. Love and hugs and happy holidays, ME |
