Look at what she does
Its magic, Bravo!
She does everything right
Oh, just look at her go!
Oh, you wrote a book?
well, that's cool, I guess.
It's not really my thing
but it's a book, nonetheless.
Aww look at my girl
She wrecked someone's marriage
She stole someone's kids
Let's buy a new baby carriage!
Oh, you married that guy?
Well, I heard he's a jerk.
You're a stay-at-home mom?
Go find some real work.
Wow, my girl is a teacher!
I am ever so proud!
She's working so hard!
I'm cheering so loud!
You homeschool your kids?
Nah, that's straight up trash.
Send em to real school
Get a job, make some cash!
Listen to my babies speech!
She's been through so much!
She can change the whole world
with her magical touch
Your makeup is stupid
Your drawings are lame
Your life is in shambles
You bring me nothing but shame
I'll worship one daughter
Abandon the other
The perfect child is mine
The spares just like her mother

He lost the treasure
Bruhh! I know how this feels, and you’ve captured it so beautifully in writing!🥺 There’s a song Matilda by Harry Styles… also the movie Matilda. It’s like a warm hug for those who feel unseen/ misunderstood by family. It’s truly so heart-wrenching going through this, but it slowly helps you build a self-esteem that’s not rooted on the validation of humans. And how freeing is thattt?! I’m so proud of you! I think your are absolutely writings are fabulous!💗
Whoa!!! The back and forth felt so real. I could see smiles for the one daughter and frowns for the other. The ending brings it full circle for me. Hope all is well with you, my friend!
Unfortunately, this is the sad reality. It's just so heartbreaking. Sending you lots of love and hugs ❤️
So 💔'ing Sending you a big hug of comfort Sara! I've missed you my friend! 🌸
my mom always said that perfection is a state of mind. If you go there often enough, you can easily forget reality. She was so right. her "other" daughter thought she was perfect and now, she's alone. Her "perfection" chased everyone away. So sad and yet, so perfect.
