This is a poem i wrote in 1997 when my daughter Miranda was 1 year old.
She is now 16 and a half a beautiful young lady.
One day my little daughter - you will read this - I love you Miranda
My little daughter - how precious you are to me
I wish you never had to grow up
You are such a precocious child
The looks you give me are so mischevious
You imitate me in so many ways
You shake your head and cluck your tongue
You want to be like your Dad
He wants to show you how its done
But your dad sometimes hasn’t a clue
He has no idea what to do
He does what hurts when he wants to protect
Those he loves from the pain inside
I want to say what needs to be said
Instead I find myself writing this poem
I only hope you never know
The pain that can hurt so badly

resting in between
i think again
its been a long time
i wish it wasn't
i suddenly realise its been
i don’t know where i was
i guess it wasn’t here
now i’m there again
but still i fall behind
i want to be with you
not realising that i cant
how i long for you
my wife of only 2
short years they’ve been fun
where did the time go
resting again i pause
and prepare myself for more
i am determined that
our love remains secure
strength and comfort
i derive from God
my love springs deep
eternity

The following email is coming to all Messenger users. Windows Live Messenger, MSN, Messenger – all names for the ubiquitous Instant Messaging program that took over where ICQ started so long ago.
Now we need to use Skype.
Here is the news on how to update now before you are forced to shortly.
Hello, |
|
Yours sincerely, |
The Messenger Team |
|
New to Skype? |

|
So, what's happening between now and the retirement? |
Messenger will continue to work as you know it today. If you are signed in with Messenger on your desktop** you will see a banner notification to upgrade. When you click on the banner, an installer window will open with the request to upgrade. This will take you through our installer flow to install Skype and automatically uninstall Messenger. |
|
So, what's happening after the retirement? |
Messenger users on desktops** will not be able to sign in and will only be able to upgrade to Skype. If you attempt to sign in, a notification will appear, and if you continue, you will be taken through our installer flow to install Skype and automatically uninstall Messenger at the same time. |
|
Can I update to Skype on my mobile? |
Yes! Skype is available on iPhone, Android and soon on Windows Phone 8. We encourage you to download the latest Skype app on your mobile and then uninstall Messenger. You will be able to sign in to Skype on your iPhone, Android and Windows Phone 8 mobile apps with your Microsoft Account over the next few weeks. If you use another phone with Messenger on it, it will continue to work for a while. |

Where can I learn more? |
