How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking. But behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begins."Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07929920771003768745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115690087140850973.post-81264734960055636842010-05-14T11:26:09.423-04:002010-05-14T11:26:09.423-04:00Jen - I wish that I was there to give you a big hu...Jen - I wish that I was there to give you a big hug and a shoulder if you needed!

I know it is hard but sometimes when we know we have done the best we could with what we had,it is extremely hard not to take it personally. Be true to yourself and try to realize that his actions are ultimately his because of what he is going through. I know that won't mend a broken heart but they say it is the ones we love the most that we hurt the most, simply because of an unfortunate comfort zone. <br /><br />Smile as your days go on and feel the warmth of that smile.<br /><br />Be always in stitches.jayne@~an eye for threads~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07392945035462143983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115690087140850973.post-78778884365508281802010-05-14T05:19:59.681-04:002010-05-14T05:19:59.681-04:00I DO know how you feel.

She had been to see me on Mother's Day, bought me flowers and a beautiful card, 'To the best mother in the word'. A week later we moved, but she never came to see our new home, won't speak to me on the phone or even tell me what is wrong. Worst of all I'm not allowed to see my grandchildren. For the last 3 Christmases I've sent them presents, (also presents to my daughter) but I still haven't heard a thing. 18 months ago when I sent her a birthday card, she phoned, and we arranged to meet a few days later, but that afternoon she arrived at my home. She took her birthday present, several 'odds and ends' that she took a liking to, my DH gave her money for the children, and then she left, and that was it. Even when I phone on Christmas Day she hangs up. I don't know what to do. So if it's any comfort, and I don't suppose it is, There are people like me who understand the torment and hurt you are going through. Blessings, and go on iethat one day your children will realise that they need you.Lesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17792334803144890605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115690087140850973.post-63717072999194652942010-05-14T03:10:21.336-04:002010-05-14T03:10:21.336-04:00(((((hugs))))(((((hugs))))Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15184381987217397026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115690087140850973.post-19305882469754124252010-05-14T02:07:59.054-04:002010-05-14T02:07:59.054-04:00So sorry to read about your sadness. *big hugs*So sorry to read about your sadness. *big hugs*valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15904215812180267706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115690087140850973.post-89837691713225745912010-05-14T01:12:32.023-04:002010-05-14T01:12:32.023-04:00Jennifer, I don't have words to tell you..., y...Jennifer, I don't have words to tell you..., you've made a fantastic and awesome job, you need to be sure of it, and proud you gave away the best of you, I know being a mom is one of the unfair jobs in the whole world, hope everything changes for good...

God knows that you did your best at raising your son, and I believe in my heart that He will honor that, and one day all this will be over, not that it doesn't hurt like crazy now, but Train a child in the way he should go, and he is old he will not depart from it! My parents had an awful time w/my brother, he was in and out of jail and told my mom he hated her, at one point, and now, they have an encredible relationship! So, just trust in God through this, He gave your son to you, and maybe now it is time to step back and know that He is GOD,and let HIM do the parenting. His hand is in this situation!!<br /><br />::Hugs::Lanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01020733302179233064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115690087140850973.post-87386241641736147432010-05-14T00:16:31.727-04:002010-05-14T00:16:31.727-04:00Jennifer, how heart rending!
