Saying good-bye is like a child who avoids taking a bath putting off what must be done so you can get over it already. I wonder why it took me so long and why I kept fighting the battle little did I know I'd come out smelling like a rose. It's water under the bridge bubbles down the drain..... |

Way cool...is that different than bathing alone? Show you care to those you love...today. |

It is only hard in our minds...once we just go ahead and do it we see how we erred...splish splash I was taking a bath....James |

Sometimes it works out that way.....of course, if the child doesn't bathe....I doubt he'd be smelling like a rose...nice work dear....Next time....call me....We'll bathe together and forget about "good-byes" we'll just say...till tonight....okay?.... |

I guess it's human nature to put of the inevitable...forgetting how wonderful relief feels. Enjoyed this! |
