[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 133718, member: 1233"] Hey star, I'll go with you to stick a candle in the tar pit!!! Anything to help our Dude!! Ya know, I can remember the visits we made to stay with my Grandma in Ohio after we moved out here. The first Christmas my dad made the comment that he needed to get home a day or 2 before school started so he would be ready to go back (my dad was a jr high teacher - and we thought being a MOM was thankless - try never getting out of 7th or 8th grade!!!!!). My Grandma walked past me to "go get something" and was crying - I almost never ever saw her cry. Until we moved, the farthest her kids lived was my aunt 45 mins away! My dad called our house "home" and it broke her up - she hid it because she felt that as soon as the kids got married they had a "home" of their own. To this day I get choked up when I remember that. And I know how it hurt when my son called my parents' house his home - for the safety and best future for ALL of my kids, but it still hurt. Even if they are "mom" YOU will still be the STAR MOM!! The others are just little birthday candle light moms, if they are mom at all. If it will really bug you, talk to your therapist, then talk to Dude. Say another title would make you feel less stepped on, or slapped, or forgotten. Dude really does care about you, and he KNOWS you care about him. by the way, sending you a PM. Susie [/QUOTE]
