[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 153393, member: 1233"] Amen, Star. You said things so beautifully. and they are all the truth. husband and the kids went shopping over a week ago for Mother's Day gifts. He gets a kick out of it - partly because he was 32 when we met and always wanted kids, but had 2 engagements end badly. He was strongly encouraged to be a priest, but felt a strong pull to have children, so he didn't. Mother's Day means a lot to HIM. And so it does to the kids. I bought my mom a book (by the lady who did the Delaney sister's story) about an 85 yr old Native American elder and her wisdom. Gma took the kids to a movie today, after keeping htem last night, so I gave her the book today. she was thrilled. Tomorrow she is going out to eat with my bro. I honestly feel my gift is NOT having to go with him. We do give gifts to each other for Mother's Day and Father's Day. So I am sure I will see him. but it will be brief. I have no clue what difficult child will do. I think he should give his gifts to my mother, not me. I really do NOT act like a mom to him much. He is gone. his choice not to live with us. It hurts, but I will try to take a break from that hurt tomorrow. I wish ALL the Mothers here a peaceful, happy day. And children that show their love EVERY day. [/QUOTE]
