Recognizing Where I Fit In

You will be the first to know she says
I never am
But I am often last
Which bothers me not
It helps me know her priorities
Making it easier for me not to do extra things for her.

I think we have all been there~wanting to be a good friend, but doubting it is reciprocal. :)Paulette

My daughter said once "Mom, they do not know how to be the friend you are" and she was eight.
