I gave up hoping for you so long ago~
I wasn't worthy~I had nothing to offer
except selfishly screwing up your life
like I did my own.

I am former 'big-city' girl who has returned to my family's roots outside a very small town in Texas. I have lived life in the fast lane, and now enjoy life on a farm/ranch with my husband and our new baby girl! Wow-has my life changed! I thought she was menopause! I used to write long ago; I have missed it! For the longest I just didn't feel like I had anything worthwhile to say, but now I do! So, for better or worse, here goes!)
For Maggie
I gave up hoping for you so long ago~
I wasn't worthy~I had nothing to offer
except selfishly screwing up your life
like I did my own.
I found my way back to life's pure path~
by the boundless Grace of God...
He still loved and forgave me~
So I loved and forgave myself.
The Gift of a new life~clean body and soul.
No more dark heart~finding joy again...
Nothing greater could I ever hope to have~
But He blessed me beyond Greatness! ! !
YOU! ! My heart~my little angel girl!
My gift that comes from beyond this world~
Life has just begun for me~real life~real love.
Mommy LOVES you Maggie~I know what love means.
