[QUOTE="Star*, post: 141252, member: 4964"] Bunny - Today I had a meeting at the foster parent providers. There would be me, Dude, Foster Dad and the director. It's a one month check up. Okay so I should NOT have seen him in one month - but we all know I have. Court - 4 minutes for Easter. One day he just stopped in to see the dogs. And normally I don't care if it was yesterday - I am happy to see him. Puppy in the pet shop window happy. But today something said - Don't be a puppy. Be a person. Huge difference. So I got in and said "hey" and I was basically ignored. So I sat down and ignored back - I got "Hey Momma" and a hug. (okay a hug) Then we talked, I didn't add too much into what had already been said - and then we were done and I said "See ya all later." and walked out. I wanted SO VERY badly to stand there and chat and hug - and laugh. But I didn't. And - to my surprise - Dude came running down the hall and said "Hey - Mooooooooommie...." and we stood and talked a minute and then I said "I have to go" (I didn't really) and he started talking more...did I have time to this, that? I guess my point is - I KNOW you are hurting. What's not to hurt about being the EVERYTHING person and now you are the SOMETHING when I need it person? If you allow yourself to be the SOMETHING person - then it's on you. If you keep to your plans no matter how it tugs at your heart - it will bring them around or it won't. If it does - You're one up. If it doesn't? You're one up in the sense that you didn't set yourself out to be whacked like a pinata! It's a win / win proposition. It just takes discipline. Do I think you are being petty? No. I think more you unknowingly set yourself up by thinking ahead and visualizing things that make YOUR day dreams complete. I told you before I stopped having the dreams - and visions and I'm much better off. Allow it to be one of those "it is what it is " days. Hugs for your hurt - But congratulations for raising such a fantastic daughter that she's ABLE to go out on her own. BRAVO MOM - bravo! Star [/QUOTE]
