nixtress's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- my boys I'm blown away, daily, by the growth in my boys. They're smart and funny and still like flip sides of a coin. I can see parts of myself in them but they're building their own personalities, habits and gestures every day. I catch glimpses, now and again, of the kind of men they'll be, how they'll handle pieces of their lives, maybe even some of the choices they'll make. I look at them and I wonder what I did to deserve such joy. I've made so many mistakes in my life, have screwed up in such huge ways. There are things I could list that would change the opinions so many people hold of me. The life I lead now was built with so many tears, so much sweat-equity, so much hard work. Built on the backs of life-changing decisions and life-altering choices, a new foundation carved from a different material than the one I grew up on. I was on a precipice once, one that could have drastically altered not only where I'm at now but the lives of my children. 11:04 p.m. - 2006-07-29 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
