[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 330740, member: 2211"] [SIZE=4][COLOR=darkslateblue]I took a few moments with difficult child today and just asked her how she was doing. She started to tear up and said she didn't know. I asked her if she was nervous or feeling, antsy? She said a little bit and she can't describe how she feels other than paranoid.
