So I got engaged yesterday. It was super sweet. He asked me in front of everyone. But honestly I felt obligated to say yes. I am scared. I love him so much but I have been married and divorced and I couldn't imagine going through it again. I am terrified. I am having doubts but I don't want to break his heart.... or my own. I know if I lost him I would be devastated but I know how bad marriage can be. What do I do? Should I see a therapist? I feel so confused and lost right now. On top of that my dad died I cant imagine him not being there. gosh Life is hard. Help please (link)

Go for it! If you truly love him give it a chance. Your dad will still be there cheering you on in soul. Don't be afraid.

My eight year old (almost nine!) cousin really likes poetry. I recently bought "milk and honey" and she wanted to read it, but it wasn't exactly appropriate for someone that young, so I want to buy her own book of poetry for her for Christmas. Do you guys know of any good poetry books for children? It doesn't necessarily have to be 100% kid-appropriate- she's pretty grown up for her age. But definitely nothing super sexual, like in "milk and honey". Preferably it would be something kind of long with a great variety of topics, or even just something that the average eight-year-old could relate to. It'd be really cool if anyone knows of any books that include both poems and an explanation of poetry, like history and how different poems are written, stuff like that. If that makes sense. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to hear it! (link)

I would recommend A Light in the Attic by Shel Silverstein. I read it when I was about her age and loved it.
