Thank you!

That's actually a horrifying poem about my daughter.

Oh, my. I wish I could say something wonderful that would help... Sending good wishes, for whatever that's worth... :( I have a very difficult relationship with my mother... the shoe on the other foot, it seems. Family. It's so hard.

I'm shunned, so I guess it's a break from mommydom. :-(

I loved being a mom though.

It's a complicated situation involving an evil nemesis and a goat at the edge of town carrying a heavy burden.

I'm not a mom, so I only know the daughter side. xo
