Note To My Daughter 
(Finding A Common Language)

“What we have here; is a failure to communicate.”

I speak Dad
You speak Daughter

I speak 50
You speak 16

I speak Golf
You speak Jump Rope

I speak Work
You speak School

I speak Sarcasm
You speak Ire

I speak It Is
You speak It Should Be

I speak Frustration
You speak Exasperation

At least we both hear Love and Respect!

I love you!

Dad

PS just added two more lines last weekend when Sarah graduated with a doctorate for occupational therapy:

I speak proud;
Because you now speak Doctor!
