I thought about my little grand daughter BELLA--at TWO
about how she is acting, reacting, and sometimes TEMPER TERRIBLE TWOS TANTRUMS--crying--screaming--not--listening--and--over-acting, in all the things everyday that a little toddler at two will naturally just--DO

I have been a dad, since i was, TWENTY-ONE
I remember oh so very well, my life, living, and love, of my every child--- DAUGHTERS ---and ---SONS, ---how they would whoop and scream and holler, in the middle of the night, and in the mid day SUN

Its a supreme challenge, that will push you to the very end of the cliff and your limit
but you one day will get over it, ---when its done and over, ---and believe me ---you will really miss it

The --terrible --twos, --with --JOY--and--DESPAIR--will--prepare --you --for --all --of --the --upcoming---happiness--fun---excitement----hurt,-- rejection --and --despair
when --the --challenging---demanding---revolting --high --school--TEEN-- days --and --growing --up--and--all--knowing----years, ----you --with --them --do --your  --best --to --SURVIVE--and---SHARE

I survived, all of the school years
and i endured many a happy time and many a sad hurtful tear

As im now with my little grand daughter BELLA at TWO
im remembering oh so well, all of the upcoming challenges trials, troubles turmoil and strife, ups and downs , challenges and  sacrifices of raising a child. TOO
