>>When all my kid...Relate to so much of this!<br />>>When all my kids were young I would worrry about failing them. I would worry about some of the things I was NOT doing that might hurt them later. And guess what? Some of my worries came true<<<<br /><br />Yep and it's all MY fault!! when I say this to my adult children they assure me it isn't, but I know better. If only I had been more consistent, self-disciplined etc they would be too, if only we had .... they would too.<br /><br />>> I used to think that when my children went off into the world my job would be done, signed, sealed and stamped.<<<br /><br />Have learnt this one too! A new relationship, a special one that I treasure but my job is by no means over!!<br /><br />Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04448595911801738792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8836262699520893805.post-47164218305052080142013-11-13T10:59:06.320-08:002013-11-13T10:59:06.320-08:00Hi Susan,

I should have known better, and I figured it out when Aidan was desperately sick and my parents and my husband's came to help, and stayed at home to keep vigils. I am a mother indelibly. The stamp and seal is on me. It is my unique privilege to be tied by love to that child even when he has grey hairs of his own, though of course with my grown child I no longer manage his life for him."<br /><br />BTW - I'm not sure what app you're using but none of the photos on this post or the previous one are showing up on my computer at all. I'm using Safari on a Mac in case that matters. Thought you might like to know...<br /><br />Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03204590757920247893noreply@blogger.com
