You are all such a great group of friends to me. Words could never explain how much all of your kind words mean. Thanks so much.

Diana like many have mentioned we can only do our best . Once the cord is severed and they are old enough to make whatever decisions they are on their own. I know that you are a wonderful mother, and do not ever forget that!!!

My prayers are with you and that whatever is bothering you will be resolved very soon. Please do not get depressed it will bring you down and your loved ones, but at the end they do whatever they feel they have to do.. So smile things will turn out ok.. My prayers are with you.

I spent some time today with my daughter and we discussed briefly what was making me upset. It's not something that she wants to talk about but still it helped to clear the air a little. While I'm still not happy about all of this the shock is starting to wear off and I'm not feeling so down about it. Thanks for all of your prayers.

I'm glad you're starting to feel better. Diana...the Serenity Prayer works for this instance too.

The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.



Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

--Reinhold Niebuhr

Diana, When our kids accomplish something wonderful we're proud of them... Not ourselves for having accomplished whatever it is they did. In the same way, when they stumble and fail, it's not because we didn't try to teach them better.

If you need a shoulder I'm here for you. You know I've had my moments with my own kids, so I really doubt there's anything you could tell me that would shock me or make me think any thing bad about you or yours.
My prayers are with you

Thanks for your poem, Janet and your kind words, Gayle. Tink, I really appreciate your words of experience. I know that you've gone through a lot with your kids too.

Diana you might need to have your daughter talk to mine. She was a hellion as a teenager. About 6 years ago, she turned around, she does not know why she did the things she did. I have my sweet little girl back.

Diana, I don't know what's going on, and I've never been a parent myself so I've got no advice, so I'm just here to offer (((((((((HUGS)))))))))) of support.
