“My Mom Lies”

Author Unknown


My Mom, she tells a lot of lies

She never did before.

From now until she dies,

She'll tell a whole lot more.


Ask my Mom how she is

And because she can't explain,

She will tell a little lie

Because she can't describe the pain.


Ask my Mom how she is,


She'll say, "I'm alright".

If that's the truth,then tell me,

why does she cry each night?


Ask my Mom how she is,

She seems to cope so well.

She didn't have a choice you see

nor the strength to yell.


Ask my Mom how she is,

"I'm fine, I’m well, I'm coping".

For God's sake Mom,
just tell the truth

just say your heart is broken.


She'll love me all her life,

I loved her all of mine.

But if you ask her how she is,

She'll lie and say she's fine.


I am Here in Heaven.

I cannot hug from here.

If she lies to you don't listen,

Hug her and hold her near.


On the day we meet again,

We'll smile and I'll be bold.

I'll say, “You’re lucky to get in here, Mom

With all the lies you told!"

Happy Sweet 16 Paige

Yesterday would have been Paige's 16th birthday. Such a milestone! A card came in the mail to congratulate her now that she's old enough to get her drivers license. It came with a air freshener for the car. Gee, thanks. What a wonderful reminder that she's not here. This should be such a changing year for her. She would also be able to start dating. I know that she would have been excited about that. She has always loved men. I can't even imagine what she'd be like. I miss her everyday. Everything I do is clouded by the fact that she's not here. My only saving grace is that I know that she is waiting for me and that we will get the chance to raise her. So, these things that we are missing now, we will not miss. I just hate waiting and watching all her friends grow up and do the things that she should be doing. I need to learn patience and to have faith that in the end, it will be ok. Until then, I will move ahead, one day at a time.
