This time last year


This time last year I carried Connor in my belly and this year he's in my arms
This time last year my bestie had her baby in her belly and her daddy by her side. This year she holds her baby in her arms and her daddy in her heart.
This time last year I fought with my husband of who should do the dishes. This year we fight over child support.
This time last year Nicole thought she couldn't have babies. This year she brings her son home from the hospital.
This time last year Cooper was just coming out of remission. This year he doesn't remember what chemo means.
This time last year my uncle helped my aunt to church on Sunday. This year he brings flowers to her resting place.
This time last year Sister Napper had aches and pains but this year she walks on streets of gold.
This time last year my dad had a steady job. This year he has just come off workman's comp with a new job and new scar down his leg.
This time last year I was a wife but not a mom and this year I am a mom but not a wife.


What a difference a year makes.
