today-I-thought-by-mum2gnt

The day Dom and I split up and I told the boys...........
Today I thought I would crush your hearts
Today I thought your world would stop
Today I thought you would cry a million tears
Today I thought you would scream out loud
Today I thought would be the saddest day of my life
Today I thought you would feel unlovedToday I thought you would hate me
Today I thought I would be the worst mother
Today I thought I would see the world through misty eyes

But my thoughts were so wrong
You were so understanding
You were so good about it all
I hope it stays that way forever
Today is the first day
of the rest of our new life as 3

Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in. ~Amy Lowell

You are a true artist - this page is amazing - both the words and pictures!
 
I totally get where you're coming from with this layout. I was so scared to tell my daughter about the break up of her father and I. I knew it would hurt her terribly even though she was an adult and out on her own when it happened. Such a beautiful, meaningful page you created.
