[QUOTE="SunnyFlorida, post: 100828, member: 696"] We had a fun time in N. FL. I posted a bit in T/SA. I too, live for the day, count my blessings, and don't dwell on what I cannot control or cannot change. My job was to get them to adulthood. I succeeded in doing that. What they do from then on is their decisions. I can guide if asked, but I try (don't always succeed, but...) not to intervene or butt in. It's hard, I have to bite my tongue alot...but they need to learn to make mistakes and move on from them. difficult child 2 had wonderful conversations with both husband and I this weekend. He interacted, was helpful, and was so grown up. difficult child 1 did a good job as well. He didn't let anything or anyone bother him. He's not as helpful but he knows it and prefers to stay in the background. All in all, 6 of us in a very small two room cabin was cozy [img]:fan:[/img] [/QUOTE]
