[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 593891, member: 831"] Best: Daughter telling me I should try out for Nickelodeon's "Funniest Mom" because "you're so funny!" when she was 11. Daughter making four goals in one soccer game. She was on fire that day. Son winning his first spelling bee in 2nd grade. The winning word: Splendid. Son and Daughter, one on each side, curling up with me in my hospital bed when I had surgery in 2007. Worst: Daughter being taken from me by CPS while I screamed in the police station parking lot. Later to find out she had leukemia. Being in court with Daughter to get a vicious group of school mates to stop harassing and bullying her when the school would do nothing. Daughter screaming in the middle of the living room that I'm a child abuser. Son telling me what horrible mother I am and that he wishes my mother, his grandmother, was his mom. Being told by the doctor that Son's behavior is upsetting to the other patients and could I please get him to stop. Of course, no matter what I did, he wouldn't stop. Mother's Day? Eh! Whatever. Never much of a deal around here. They usually both forget. I just try to have a good day on my own. [/QUOTE]
