Here I am on this board again...Geez I keep typing that I finally can type without looking at the keyboard.
I am kinda happy but sad at the same time.I am happy because I went on a wonderful retreat this weekend...and it just so happened that it was based o the serenity prayer.I felt soo touched.I was accountable to my hp whom I call God.I was so happy that the retreat was based on this.I got a notebook with the prayer on it,a keychain,and a bracelet.I was soo fortunate.It was not coinicdence It was God.I know it.My mom also wrote be the most beautiful letter ever.I also cried this weekend.I never cry.I must have been so touched...
The sad part is I miss someone.I miss her very deeply.She is not dead.We just are not talking at the moment.I think I may have upseted her in some way.I do love her.She told me that she just needs her space now.I totally understand it.She has 5 kids...and a life.I just wish that we can still talk.I do need her...WEll I will stop rambling.

Maybe you cried because you need your mom. Everyone needs their mother, especially us. I am very happy, that you are reuniting with yours. It will be a lifetime treasure.
5 kids...Ach du meine Güte! Have compassion for all the work she has. No wonder. She's probably exhausted. But, I am confused. Which one are you? Do you have siblings? I thought your mom had left your father. So where and when did 5 kids happen?
You said your mom had you really young. Give her time. She will catch up with you and either be a good mom or a very good big sister! In the meantime, there is always HP. He is never too young and he is always there. He is waiting for you.
