This poem just remind me how important my family and friends are to me:
Your Family
Your family are people, you can depend,
If you get in trouble, they shall defend.
They are the one's that understand,
Always willing to give you a hand.
Your family, you should always cherish,
Without them you would probably perish.
Your connection with them is very deep,
If something happens, together you weep.
You family can help, your confidence build,
With their love and support, you'll feel fulfilled.
Just don't forget to show your appreciation,
That will strengthen your relation.

Hello Yalanda,
ReplyDeleteThe poem was a beautiful summary of the important relationships within your life. I appreciated how you included friends within your childhood web. Friendships during childhood offer children the chance to explore social boundaries and pick up on social skills through trial and error. Since our peers are typically experiencing similar situations and share many commonalities, it is beneficial for children to have strong peer relationships to help them discuss and make sense of their world together.
Thanks and you are right my friends are part of my family these young ladies and I grew up together and they really help me face some of my most difficulty experiences in life.
