Array ( [sid] => 65180 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => It Was Worth It!! [time] => 2004-09-26 01:10:34 [hometext] => Just some free form to express my happiness over my grand daughter's happiness when she went to her homecoming dance. [bodytext] => She came out smiling, beaming, glowing
And it made it all worthwhile! :o)
She jumped in the Jeep telling me
About the guy she liked
(But he doesn't like her like that)
He slow danced with her and held her tight! :o)
And commented about how tiny she was.
And she absolutely GLOWED when she told me
And it made it all worth it
The money we couldn't afford
The time spent running from store to store
For just the right shoes, dress, nylons, and shawl
For all that, and more. It was worth it.
For just a couple of hours
My Granddaughter was in ecstasy!
So, yeah, it was worth it.

Love you, Sylina! [comments] => 13 [counter] => 234 [topic] => 21 [informant] => thumper [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 25 [ratings] => 5 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Awwwwwww Thumper! This is so loving, so sweet! And... I think you got it exactly right... it was, I'm sure, a very big deal to your granddaughter --- and that is worth more than anything!

Thanks for sharing this,

I'm sure she was a vision of beauty. Plz let her know that things with this boy will get better and she will move on. By any chance is that who her song is about:)
Love
