In The Beginning

In the beginning there was me,
there was I,
there were my little brown eyes,
and my
little brown pigtails
and the click-clack-click-clack
click
clack
of my roller skates down the drive.
In the beginning there was me,
there was you,
and your curly beard,
remember?
I used to ask if it was real.
Like maybe you were Santa Claus,
'cause I just knew you were
keeping
a
secret.
In the beginning there was me,
and you
were
my
grandpa
with the "magic rubber folding ears",
and I could almost touch the sky
on your shoulders.
'Cause we all knew
it was just that far away.
In the beginning there was me,
there was I,
there were my little brown eyes,
that
I
shut
so tight,
(be still! be still!)
pretending to still be asleep,
the night I found out
what
your secret
was.

This was my very first post on this blog. I wrote it especially for it. I just wanted everyone to see it who hadn't. Sorry I'm not around much at the moment again. I've been working 8-9 hour days for the past week and will work another 7 more days just like that. Blah. I am tired, BUT I still am loving my job completely. This weekend was not really fun because I was supposed to have the kids and it ended it that I had to work all weekend. Cowboy was none too happy about that one-let me tell you. But when I got off today I was able to get Rosie for some "one on one" time-which was so very cool. Hopefully I can get Barrett and Caleb in for the same this week between shifts. Anyway, I'm off to bed-I'm exhausted. Talk with you again soon world...
