That's what I'm working on as well. When the little man goes to school, I need to make sure that daughter has what she needs and allow myself that time as I can. That's where I could be alot better.

Also, I think I've given the wrong impression that she's that way ALL the time. Right now it feels like it...lol...but she's not. For instance, I just spoke with her on the phone and she feels really good this morning and is my pleasant, helpful, happy daughter. She just said, "I hope this time comes more and more because I know I'm so difficult. At the end of the day when I go through it, I get so mad at myself and it feels so out of control at that moment."

She's a wonderful kid and I think that's why it might be so hard...because I'm not used to having to relate with her the way I do at times...well, of course I did occassionally but not at this frequency.

Love,

KD
