It means so much to know you and your life too. I feel I've missed out on so much not living close enough to visit with you. I'm sorry you too, endured abuse. Verbal is so much harder to get over than people may think. I admire how you've built a beautiful life with Uncle Bill and have such good relationships with Scott and Amy! Here's to getting to know each other in deeper levels! Love, c Thank you Aunt Mary Helen. It means so much to know you and your life too.

I was mom at 11 because mom had to work and dad wanted nothing to do with is! I don't want to say I regret that because my lil brother is my vest friend and he comes yo me not my mom! Now a mother if 5u boys I understand more now than I ever did how important it is to just be a kid! And I try my best to teach them everything to be good boys and one day men ...my kids have never had to cook for themselves and they always have a hot meal made from my heart, they get hugs and kisses everyday and I always let them know how much I love them! And they have never had to live in a house that was dirty I love them too much for that! So I don't know what kind of parent I am but I do my beat!

My maternal grandmother raised the four of us from the time I was born until I was about 10 years old. I am the oldest. Mother was sickly. I won't go into that, but she used that as often as she could to get her way! My abuse didn't begin until my grandmother left. It was verbal abuse and degradation, not physical. As soon as I started developing my parents decided I couldn't be trusted. I went through hell all through high school. It wasn't until I met your Uncle Bill that I gained any self confidence. I never had the problems with my kids that you have had, but I can empathize with you, because several of my friends did. Sounds like you are adjusting to the "empty nest" pretty good. You just have to know you did your best and love them always. I'm glad Michaela is going to get to come home for a while, you two should have a great time. Amy and I do when she comes for a visit. She's in Miami and we talk on the phone everyday while she's driving home from work. Wish you were close so we could do things together!!
