Sad news today After 57 years of marriage Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head are getting a divorce (Or is that "potatoe" as George W. would say. I never pass up an oppertunity to make fun of that ridiculous ************ Anyway Divorce must be hard on a kid I skipped that part having never met my bio-dad My mom was a trooper though I was a mischevious handful I remember when i was 4 my mom was going to paint my room Well i had a different time table than her So when she was unaware i tried my hand at interior decorating Apparently she didn't want the room carpet and all painted in blue and red splashes and handprints I got an E for effort though Having never had a father til that point I never knew the feeling of losing one In those days the kid automaticaly went to the mom Having to decide is an awful thing for a child to have to do And basically they have to I love you my little pawn Says mommy I love you my little pawn Says daddy It must leave all 3 emotionally scarred Sometimes marraiges just don't work out What can you do? I can only hope they draw on their initial spark of love to handle the situation with the care that it needs Stay together for the kids? Ultimately i think that just leads to bigger scars Respect your loved ones Former, present and future And for Gods sake remember to keep your childs innocence intact Like a sack of potatoes So are the days of our lives
