For the Lack of ..

When I was younger (& even now) I've found it difficult to express the fruityness towards those around me .

My parents & then boyfriend are witness to it.

So if I have shown any positive emotion towards you & you're not one of whom I've given birth to ... well ..

This memory is always  in the back of my mind, during one of my most troubled times
I couldn't bare being where I was and at the time my parents had not one clue of what I had being enduring,
so I had sat my parents down & basically told them I was moving out to my grandmas Eva place.

At this point I was 14/15.

My father told me that if those were my intentions we would have to go through it legally , giving me each excuse possible for me to retrieve from the decision.

I , being the teen that I was, gave them the "w/e" attitude & told them I was still going through it.

They kinda jst were like ,"yea, ok , we'll see"

But before getting dismissed from the table as they sat at one end of facing me,  my mom decides to start speaking about me to my dad as if I wasn't there saying,

"Tu crees que edith nos quiere? "

"Si,  nadamas que tiene una forma de differente de demostrarlo. ", my dad response.

So now as Edith, the mother,
I try to show them as much of my affection & have  endless marathons of "I love you"'s w/my kids.

I don't ever want them being puzzled as to if I love them or not.

I want them knowing their place in my life every single day God provides them with.
