P.s
She wrote this,afterI had to make a desision to disipline her .
After waiting for 4 weeks to watch High School Musical 2,one day before it came out,which also happened to be the last day at school,she was pipped at the post by a slight misedemor on her behalf.
I remember taking her aside alone in our bedroom and explaining to her what I had decided as a consequence. Yep you guessed it . No movie. As she listened, I noticed her tears welling up in her eyes...., the quivering of the lip,........,the drop of the head ,.......all within that small moment of time when her dream ships of expectation had been smashed upon the harsh rocks of reality.
I wrote a note to say to her I love you and all is forgotten and forgiven,her poem was her response.

"A child, more than all other gifts
That earth can offer to declining man,
Brings hope with it, and forward-looking thoughts"
- William Wordsworth
Aaah, the love of a child... there's something special about it, especially a daughter's love for her Daddy....
To be firm yet gracious, disciplining those whom we love as the Lord does (Heb 12)... you're a good man Jeremy...
Oh --- that previous comment was from me --- Si M...
Wow, that made me cry...
Why would you cause so much pain to a little girl? To err is human to let her watch her movie would have made you a better man
Is she never allowed to watch it now? Poor little thing.
Hi Anonymous -Interesting comment
Do you have Children?
If so what would you have done?
Yes she watched the movie last week .
It caused her dissapointment,but no pain what so ever.(very different)
How can someone in pain write a poem like she did
Now that is good preaching =)
