Promise of a Lifetime
I have fallen to my knees As I sing a lullaby of pain I’m feeling broken in my melody As I sing to help the tears go away Then I remember the pledge you made to me I know you’re always there To my every prayer inside I’m clinging to the promise of a lifetime I hear the words you say To never walk away from me and leave behind The promise of a lifetime Will you help me fall apart Pick me up, take...

Even if You take it all away You’ll never let me go Take it all...

To the best mom, ever.
I love you. You’ve been gone just over 10 hours and already I can feel the big hole that you’ve filled my entire life. It’s 3:15 am. As far as I know everyone else here is sleeping, but we all miss you. You changed our lives, and all for the good.
I know I’ve told you a hundred thousand times that I’m not convinced I ever want kids. But if I were to change my mind,...
