It runs like a river through the maternal side of my family, and while I haven't walked in your shoes, I have trudged my own path with much of the same scenery. <br /><br />You do good things, you make a difference.

Mother's Day 200...My FIL died a year ago today. Mother's Day 2009. My eldest son attempted to wake him up at 8am, by 9:30 at the hospital, it was all over.<br /><br />Last May was a very long month. For my birthday a week or so later my Dh thought he'd show me how I was mowing the grass wrong and the lawnmower picked up a piece of steel. I have a 2+" long scar in my right shin now... Mother was here for 12 days until I mastered the stairs and it was 3wks before the stiches came out. He likes to tell people that he shot me... he was more upset than I was.<br /><br />Life sucks on a good day IMO... it's the truly sh*tty days you have to watch out for.<br /><br />This May came with a promise of new placement for little boy next Sept. Sunshine (been working on it since Dec) instead of rain... now if the truly wet crap would stop outside my window... I hope it continues and makes up for last year.farmwifetwohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02680758336779501712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965786238639259598.post-82811780909828638752010-05-09T07:27:23.454-04:002010-05-09T07:27:23.454-04:00Wow.

Though, I don't have the demons you have, I can get a small picture of it. Hugs and I hope you continue to make lemonade out of lemons.vw bughttp://onehappydog.usnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965786238639259598.post-61817436140523783222010-05-08T14:02:06.887-04:002010-05-08T14:02:06.887-04:00Being able to 'understand' a parent's ...Being able to 'understand' a parent's actions is a way to help one understand his/her own actions...and not loving the parent any less...maybe even more.<br /><br />Beautiful post...may you keep finding the strength that makes you such a beautiful person.Mrs. Whohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756079166320905027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965786238639259598.post-41987485196704650592010-05-07T16:29:40.212-04:002010-05-07T16:29:40.212-04:00This was something I really needed to read today. ...This was something I really needed to read today.
