You will have "us" to support you at work when ever you need "us"... I'm glad you found someone who will take care of your precious daughters. . . the funny thing is that feeling of missing them never goes away no matter how old they are!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12593604647570046795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-37096337008288269732011-07-27T07:36:55.413-05:002011-07-27T07:36:55.413-05:00What a beautiful poem you have written.

It's never easy turning our precious children over to someone else (remember how hard it was last year when you left them with family), but it will all be good and you will enjoy them that much more when you come home at the end of the day. I know how hard it was when I left you at daycare, but look how you turned out!

Your last stanza is my favorite; it captures your heart.

Your poem showed your feelings so well, but especially in that line, "I'll think of you". Elsie is right; we don't stop thinking even when they're grown & far away.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-81376003258834265072011-07-26T17:02:16.361-05:002011-07-26T17:02:16.361-05:00I was fortunate to be able to stay home after my s...I was fortunate to be able to stay home after my second child was born and return to the work force 5 years later. The good thing about teaching though, is that there is very little time to worry about your own, when you are worrying about someone else's!Donna Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13738281869266957726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-69346028448336041662011-07-26T12:35:41.035-05:002011-07-26T12:35:41.035-05:00It's amazing how our kids fill our mind when w...It's amazing how our kids fill our mind when we are not together.

Your poem includes both the heart ache and the reassurance that everything will be ok with the children. Yes everything will be ok with them and with you. But you can't stop missing them.Terje https://www.blogger.com/profile/13569210226711674834noreply@blogger.com
