Hannah's Poem: Watching Dad Leave



Watching Dad Leave
By Hannah Ford

Last night


I watched Dad leave to go to Iraq


and it broke my heart to watch him leave.


I wish I could fly with him.


Haley and I cried until we couldn’t see the plane anymore.

  3. Thank you both. She's a funny little body. It makes you realize that children know more than they tell us.
