"DEAR GOD,
You are the author of this book, Im only a minor character in this drama
filled novel. You finish the chapter how you see fit! You control the end of the
chapter as well as the end of the book! Let me know how it ends but PLEASE do
not let my son be hurt and let down by this cold hearted man!!!!! Please help
Kamdyn to understand that mommy did everything she could to try and MAKE his
father be the man that he needed but it just didnt work like I planned!!!!
Please help him as he gets older to understand the meaning behind the saying "
any man can be a father but it takes a REAL MAN to be a daddy" Help me to raise
Kamdyn to be a REAL man and give him the guidance he needs to be a loving,
caring gentleman regardless of who his father is! And one more thing....if you
would like to send "PRINCE CHARMING" my way to sweep me off my feet and step in
and be the "daddy" that Kamdyn needs; im ok with that too!

A NEW FAMILY IS CREATED......
The Gift of Life

But in my heart I know.
The love I

As if it had been so.
For us to have each
other
Is like a dream come true!
No, I didn't give you
The gift of
life,
Life gave me the gift of you.
