But sadder still was my poor mom enduring Dad's wrath. I never could figure why he was. <br />That too had a happier ending, Dad changed over night, with Mom but not me. I think it was at the time we started going to church. <br />Thank you for writing this, I shouldn't have dumped on you but I'm hitting 'send' now<br />..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174947457823680382.post-68763594326642517962014-03-16T01:09:45.027-05:002014-03-16T01:09:45.027-05:00I shudder to think of how much damage children can...I shudder to think of how much damage children can cause in one another.
