Thank you all for your words of support. It is much appreciated.

And Lisa Michelle - thank you for the viewpoint of the child. You brought tears to my eyes and pride to my heart. My girls and I are very close and I do cherish that. I just have to remember that just talking to me may be helpful and that I do not need to have all the answers. Of course, it's easier said than done! But I'll try.

I was never real close to my mom and still cannot really talk to her. I am grateful I can call my girls my friends.
