Just a quick reposting of, what was to me, the most emotional moment of all three nights at the DNC: the poem, "But you didn't," by Melinda Kane.
Remember how I cheered like crazy at your first little league game even when you struck out four times?
I thought you'd tell me not to come anymore...
But you didn't.
Remember when I made you take your sister to her first dance?
I thought you'd hate me forever for that...
But you didn't.
Remember when you were too old to kiss goodnight anymore, but I walked into your room one night and tried anyway.
I thought you'd push me away...
But you didn't.
There were so many things I wanted to thank you for when you came home...
But you didn't.
