“Where I’m From” – A poem about family, by my youngest son

This poem touched my heart in more ways than one and I just had to share it.

In my next post I”ll share what I’ve learned from my son and how his poem can be used as a guideline for a happy and loving family.

I am from a family that my dad cooks pancakes.
I am from cars driving from the road at sunset.
I am from mom’s kindness and dad’s good pancakes.
I am from my brother’s meanness and fighting a lot.
I am from Greenville, SC.
We travel through some states.
I’m from a family that eat’s pizza on Fridays.
I’m from a family that plays sports like basketball and watching football.
I’m from a family that goes to 2 different schools, elementary and middle school.
I am from a place that my dad cooks every morning and my mom cooks at night.
I am from a family that my mom and dad prays with me every night.
I am from a family that goes to church every Sunday and Wednesday night.
