No more playing now! It's late!" <BR/>"No, Daughter I can't sleep with you." <BR/>"Son, stop being nosy and get to sleep."<BR/><BR/>So I should chill and do something to make bedtime something to look forward too. Dang! I don't know if I have the energy. But thank God for families like that. Proof that marriage, family and all that can work. Good to see in a society as jaded as ours.Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08417978891700405544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28172200.post-449922335396424262007-10-11T20:24:00.000-04:002007-10-11T20:24:00.000-04:00Wow.

I remember being very young and longing with all my heart for a real family. Just the kind you described. I was never satisfied with where I was....until 5 years ago when I gave my heart to Jesus. <BR/><BR/>I grew up and married a drug addict. I had two kids and got divorced. I didn't raise my kids in the church and boy do I regret that!<BR/><BR/>I now have a 23 year old daughter who has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and I am raising her 4 year old and 9 month old. I don't understand why everything has happened this way but I trust God to get me through each day.<BR/><BR/>Maybe you just needed that cry to let go of some tension. I'm sure your children see things in an entirely different light and can tell stories of how you sacrificed and showed them love.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03602711376817565359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28172200.post-78287500464899043622007-10-01T11:47:00.000-04:002007-10-01T11:47:00.000-04:00That is precious.

That is the way it should be but not always the way it is. <BR/><BR/>The good thing is that God our Father in Heaven is a <A HREF="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?book_id=23&chapter=68&verse=5&version=31&context=verse" REL="nofollow">father to the fatherless and a defender of widows</A>. You and your children were never really alone.<BR/><BR/>Just look at what your children have become. They are wonderful, precious people now. That's says a lot about a mother's love - YOUR love! You did good Sister!Looney Momâ„¢https://www.blogger.com/profile/02300676154667006653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28172200.post-42538165183369884902007-09-29T12:32:00.000-04:002007-09-29T12:32:00.000-04:00Wow...you just about had me crying too. This just...Wow...you just about had me crying too. This just came into my head...something my Mom did for me when I was in my 20's. It was a little book...not too many pages...she put together about our conversations we had together...how she called me her Samuel because she wanted a girl (I have 3 older brothers)...well, I pulled that out the other night...Mom has been gone for a long time, but her words were as fresh as the day she wrote them. Perhaps you can reclaim some of those moments...write them in a book for your children (I need to take the same council)There are lessons you learned together, moments of laughter, ordinary days which were extraordinary in you mind like when your child leaned over to give you a kiss on the cheek...one you didn't ask for.<BR/><BR/>You still have that ability to love and some day there will be another generation to love and care for. Your humor and honesty creates tears and laughter as you post to those who might read your thoughts. You are a blessing, and you did more than survive, you overcame obsticles...perhaps it is time to pass those lessons on to others.<BR/><BR/>Blessings my friend!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17765661246962290130noreply@blogger.com
