Thank you so much for your posts. I needed to hear from someone who shared my views. Oh, yes I am very analytical to a fault.

You are right teen girls are never happy.

I have had many conversations with them about how in just 4 years they will be off to college and I will be home alone. And you are right, they don't even want me to date. They just want me to spend all my time with them. Which usually ends up in them going off with their friends and me sitting at home or being a driver for them. I guess they are just kids and really don't understand. They don't think I can love everyone.

I love him so much

I'm the type who tries to keep everyone happy. I guess I just have to press ahead and hope they can work through their emotions later.

My sis called, she didn't say anything about our talk, but I think she was just calling to make sure I wasn't mad at her. It was one of those calls that was no reason what so ever. a step forward

The stress:
I fear an ugly outburst on the wedding day.... my kids are like that when pushed to their limit. I guess that is where most of the stress is coming from. At times I just want to get married without them there... which I would never actually do.
