O.K.  After all that venting in my last post, I thought I'd share the
most lovely poem I received for my birthday from my 10 year old
daughter, Dana:

From the day she is born,
You and your baby are together.

Love touches you all the time.

Love your baby because soon she'll be all grown up.
She'll have her own special interests.
She may forget to say goodbye as she runs out to play...

But she knows you're still there.


(translated from the Hebrew.)

Is this great stuff, or what?

Beaming and a little teary-eyed,

By the way, there was a picture too of a little hand reaching out to the
mom's.
