[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 92949, member: 1514"] Lordy I didnt know this was going to get so deep! It is extremely hard to separate ourselves from our kids when we are in the thick of it I think. Maybe some of us are better at it than others...dont know. Have any of you ever heard the song "You and me against the world?" Helen Reddy sang it way back when. <span style="color: #cc33cc"> You and me against the world Sometimes it feels like you and me against the world When all the others turn their back and walk away You can count on me to stay Remember when the circus came to town And you were frightened by the clown? Wasn't it nice to be around someone that you knew? Someone who was big and strong and looking out for You and me against the world Sometimes it feels like you and me against the world And for all the times we've cried I always felt that The odds were on our side And when one of us is gone And one of us is left to carry on Then remembering will have to do Our memories alone will get us through Think about the days of me and you Of you and me against the world</span> husband and I used to think of that song as our song for our little family because we really didnt have anyone but us to rely on. It WAS us against the world. The kids were so hard and we didnt have any family to help. It didnt matter how hard it was for me, I was left to do it all because he had to work to try and eek out a living for us. Somehow we made it. I guess because it was US against the world. Maybe that is why we are such a close little group and why it is so hard on all of us to give up on each other. We have fought so hard for so many years to make it this far. Ok...this is getting to be a book...lmao. Im getting sappy too. [/QUOTE]
