I Lied

Remember when I said it's better to give than to receive? That was HOURS ago and I've changed my mind. Kendall gave me her Christmas present to me this evening, since she's leaving for Kansas tomorrow morning and I absolutly LOVE her gift and I had to share. One thing I did not lie about, is that the best gift comes from the heart and hers definitely did. I immediately started crying when I read the words in the poem she framed for me.

Shannon

Cheerful, brainy, fair and loving

You are my beautiful step-mom

Lover of Jay, Nicole, and me

Who feels sad, happy and angry

Who finds happiness in my grades, my chores and doing what I am told

Who needs love, support, and being a mom

Who gives answers, help, and excellent ideas

Who fears snakes, lizards, and spiders

Who would like to see Wicked, 12 Stones, and Nicole

Who enjoys the Bee movie, Cars, and Bill Cosby

Who likes to wear sandals, shirts, and pants

Who makes me feel special, happy, and thoughtful

Shannon, you have been the best mother because God said that you are a loveable child

Your loving daughter,

Kendall

I am blessed....enough said.
