[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 490261, member: 3305"] Midwest mom, Trinity, Esther and KTmom, Thank you so so much! Trinity...I was an only child raised by a single parent. Did not know my dad til I was around 17 and had no brothers or sisters that I was raised with. My grandfather (on mom's side) died of massive heart attack at work when I was 3 and my grandmother (mom's side) died when I was 13. I have one aunt and 2 cousins that I was close with growing up, no other family. When I was little that is all I wanted was a BIG family. I was talented as an artist through my teen yrs but did not pursue any career field. Literally I wanted to be a mamma and have the family, the grands and someday great grands. I did not want the career. Now, there are almost 8 people in the world that would not be here without me as a vessel. And here I started out as an "only lonely child". Now, I wish my mom would get on board and be the "great-grandmotherly" type that loves to be around family all the time and bake cookies, lol...but she is a hmmm...High class socialite. Not into that "role" so much. Yes, she does love us alll a great deal but limits her time with the extended family. I hope to be more matronely (sp). But, can't change my mom that's just who she is. Esther... You are too TOO kind. Thank you so much for calling me pretty. I have gained a tremendous amount of weight since you last saw me, sigh. As you may know now I have to take Abilify and I blame my carb cravings, sweet cravings, on it. My mother claims there's no excuse (she's on Jenny Craig) but I never was this big ever...even while pregnant. Tell you something funny...speaking of getting older. 2 weeks ago my mom took me in for a Hearing Test as I get things wrong all time. You say "stewed tomatoes", I hear "2 potatos". lol Anyway, I do have hearing loss...and my vision is going too. I also blame this on the Abilify (why not). I joked that next week "mom is taking me to look for an assisted living facility that I can move into". I am definitely feeling my age these days. Love, LMS [/QUOTE]
