Re: Bel
Naut,
Thank you. I am not sure there is much left to do. I am weary of the struggle and well, let's just say there are some things we just can't change or undo. She is my mother, I will always love her because she is my mother, but I have to accept that loving a parent and liking them...is often not one in the same.
It is best that I just allow her to be who she is and realize that is not someone I really like much and try to do better for my own daughter.

I do hope that in the end you and your Mom will find a way to one another...And I also hope you'll get your stories published...

Sometimes it is just best to skip out on the holidays with selected family members when it's going to be so tense.

Re: Bel
Justi,
God has always handled it in the past and I trust implicitly that he will once again. I know there is a reason for this time and this lesson and in the end, it just makes me want to hug my daughter even more and be more aware to tell her and show her how much I love her.

Re: Sam
God blessed me with an amazing child. I once thought that I was being punished for earlier choices in my life as I was unable to get pregnant. It took time but I realized that God had a much better plan. I can't imagine my life without that beautiful girl as a part of it.

Re: Elyse
I'm working on putting them together. I probably won't launch anything on Etsy until I get back after the 5th of December. I don't want to have orders piling up while I am away. I am going to spend a week loving my daughter and probably hugging her too much for her taste and snuggling with Carl in front of the tv. 1 more week!!!!

Sorry, I can't bring some French Fries from McDonalds for Hubby and I shared your order last night. They were good. Hey, he is as much to blame as me. 
You know Bel, reality is what it is. You are the best judge of how to handle your own personal situation. Only you know the things you have endured. No one has any right to judge you an any way until they walk in your shoes. I find in life that we must shield our own selves from what the world sometimes dishes out, for no one can protect us as we can protect ourselves. You do what ya gotta do in regards to family Holiday's. I just wish the best for you. Pam is so fortunate to have you on her side.
Your products sound neat. Good luck in all your endeavors.
ps. I'll bring the virtual Pumpkin Pie. LOL

It can be so difficult with family during the holidays, but you must do what is right for you! You have been an outstanding mother to Pam and it's time that her biological mother be seen for what she is; Pam only needs you for it is about the love you give to her so unconditionally and you always have her success and happiness at the forefront! That's what she needs most! So good of you to do it as well, but I know you love her deeply and it comes naturally! It's what makes it so special! sam

Yay! Count me in if you're having a virtual Thanksgiving and serve pots and pots of coffee if it's anti-ageing.
