Who am I?



This is quite a question to ask,
I am many things to many people.

A mother to my daughter.
For her I am:
Strong, gentle, loving, knowledgeable, and reliable.

A daughter to my mom.
For her I am:
Dependable, caring, helpful, and able.

A sister to my brother.
For him I am:
A companion, friend, link to our past.

A niece to my Aunt.
For her I'm:
A friend, sister, dog breeder.

A granddaughter to my grandfather.
For him I am:
A companion, meals on wheels, a good listener, laughter, And pure love radiant like the sun in his declining years.

A friend to my girlfriends, their families, and neighbors.
For them I am:
A caretaker of animals, homes, and their well being.

Ex-wife to my ex-husband.
For him I am:
The sole custodian of our daughter,
Working with him to raise her.
Talking about issues important to her health and well being.

Employee to employers past and present.
For them I am:
Dependable, reliable, hard working, loyal, and congenial.
