The Weekend is over
Permalink  

Had a really nice weekend with my son.  We went mud riding in the Razor after the rain storm and got so muddy it took an hour to clean the razor and us off. lol

Now it will be time to let him go soon.....go back to the his problems and how he's going to fix it.   I'm feeling bad but have kept quite not to bring up anything that might give him thought he will come here.  I thought this is not a good time for him to be around here but he has to realize mom will not give in anymore. He can be in my life but he can't think I will take care of his problems.

He has to leave...go home.....and work to better his life. If not he will feel the pain and fear he has caused himself...

I love him so much but I will let go and let God take control.

((( hugs ))))

I'm so glad you could both have fun together this weekend. It is very hard to let them go when things look so shaky for them. But, I think things look shaky to us because it isn't our life they are walking into when they go. It is theirs. They can see the opportunities in it for them better than we can if they're willing to look, Cathy. We can't escape Providence.

Am so thankful you guys had fun together. You sound like my son and me. Hon I cannot imagine my son being A. Now he had his share of bolony though! ONE day at a time. He can do it. Remember you not babying him is you telling him you know he can do it himself. hugs, debilyn
