[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 128612, member: 1233"] I am very aware, right now, of how peaceful my life is. difficult child is doing so very well, I am really PROUD of him. The violence is GONE, he isn't cutting anymore, he has close friends and a girlfriend. I haven't met the girlfriend, but my parents have and they say she is intelligent and sweet and funny. YAY! The other day we were at McD's picking up burgers for a snack. The girl at the counter looked at thank you (who was kind of flipping around, not near anyone) and said he looked like he should be difficult child's little bro. I laughed, said let me introduce you to difficult child's little bro. She was amazed. It was silly and fun. Recently, while I was recovering, Gracie knocked a box off the top shelf of the closet onto my head (no damage to my neck, thankfully!). It was the box of photos I put away shortly after difficult child was removed from our home. I looked through the photos and remembered the happy times with difficult child. It didn't rip my heart out to see the photos, this is a new development. I can see the happy times, and not ache so much I think my heart will just stop. So I AM finally able to see the silly, happy fun times. I can see the photos of my boys again. I had put up some of thank you's baby and toddler pics because he looked EXACTLY like difficult child and it hurt. But those are back out. I think I am going to try to focus on the happy for the next while. I am READY now! Susie [/QUOTE]
