Unleash Your Inner Strength!

They told her she was stupid... She didn't have what it takes to be a winner... She was not pretty enough to be in the beauty contest... They told her no one would ever love her... Every time she got up they just knocked her back down... They said she was nuts, crazy, a loser...

This is Shannon, and she was hurting, and no one knew it but her... No one cared... Shannon cried herself to sleep almost every night... The voices that would never stop inside her head... Telling her over an over again and again she was a loser... She was ugly, stupid, fat, lazy, a bad person and no good...

Her note read... I don't know who I am anymore... I was happy when I was a little girl... Then my family started call me all these names an telling me I was stupid... I stood in front of the mirror today and I didn't like the girl standing before me... They took something from me... They took my self esteem... Sorry, I just don't want to hurt anymore... Good bye...

Shannon died that night because she just couldn't take the pain of hurting any longer... All she wanted was to be loved... To be happy... See sticks an stones may break bones but words will destroy a health mind...

Please be careful what you tell your children use words that encourage not words that hurt... Sometimes the hurt just runs to deep... Shannon didn't die from a bullet that night she died from a broken heart...

What are some of your childhood memories? Could they be
things like a special birthday party, a family trip, a reward for an
achievement? Sarah had her own set of childhood memories, a boy tied to a
chair, a dark leather belt, forgotten birthdays, being hungry, vacant eyes, and
lost innocence. These are the memories that put dark clouds on her days, and
caused her to cry out in her dreams. These are the memories of a child living a
life enveloped within child abuse.


"I Love You Baby Girl", is the true story of the adversity and triumphs one
girl faced as she fought against those that threatened her very survival. Cry
with Sarah as her pain is described, wonder how she could survive the constant
abuse, cheer her on as she fights back, and rejoice with her when she finally
breaks through to freedom from a life of heartbreak.


"I Love You Baby Girl" is volume #1 in a two part series
called Not a Victim... But a Survivor.  The
second book in the series "I Learned to Love Myself" will be releasing the end
of April 2013, and is a continuation of Sarah's story as she heals from a past
of child and sexual abuse, and becomes a survivor.

Hi, my name is Frank Brondum and I once suffered from all these things an more...  I wanted to share my story with you to let you know, there is hope... I was abused as a child growing up... Mentally, physically, and sexually... I knew at the age of 24, after the fail of my first marriage, I had to do something... Something to change me... I had to break the cycle of abuse... Well, I am 58 now and I have three wonderful kids the youngest is 6... Below is a picture of all of us...  

  

The oldest is Nicholas he just turned 25... Then there is Ricky he is 14 he is my brain child... Savannah the youngest and the boss of us all... She is 6 but she thinks she's thirty... She tells us what we are going to eat, when to go to bed, who's turn it is to clean the dishes, and when it time to play with her... LOL I use to think as I was trying to change myself why am I doing this... I now know why... I am a happy man who loves his kids, an most importantly, they love me an call me Daddy... :)  

Change wasn't easy but change did come about... There were times when I just wanted to quit... But I never surrender... I never quit... I was bound an determined to change... So, I bought self help books, tapes, anything, that I thought would an could help me... I learned about how to change, the way I think an act... I had to change that little voice inside my head... I had to shut him down... You know the one that says you can't do that, your not good enough... Your not smart enough, or your just a loser,  a dummy, you will never amount to anything... Well I started seeing break troughs, I started to see changes in myself that I liked... I started liking me... (How cool is that)... But the best part is other people started liking me too... So now, I am a good Dad, a great friend, a wonderful lover, and a kick to be around... Least  that's what my kids wife an friends say... Oh you may ask what about my wife... Well she is a lot more private than I am... She asked me not talk about her put pictures of her on here... So I respect her enough not to put her picture on here... I will say this though, she looks just like my baby girl...
