All I ever wanted to do was love you and give you what I never had so that you wouldn't grow up sad and alone..... the way that I had to, but you; you take for granted and hold no fear while leaving me here, in tears and still I know that no matter what you do my precious child, I will always love you. seek the flame within yourself |

We always try to do our best for our children to prevent them from going through the same things we did. And, we will always love them no matter what they do. |

I feel your ache, gentle-spirited one. Remember, "...and this too shall pass..." Continue loving her and she will find her way back. Giving you a big, warm compassionate hug, Linda xo |

What SEA said... they have to make their own decisions, and work their their own mistakes. But what we wouldn't give for one huge bandaid. |

As it is, with mothers. Then comes the night, and we peek quietly in their rooms, see them sleeping, and we smile. Then we think to the future, when they themselves are parents, and know they will walk in these very shoes we wear now, and we smile even broader. excellent write. Sandra |

There are time when we wish they would never grow up and other times when we want to slam the door behind them after we throw their favorite pillow out the door. Above all, they are priceless, they just don't know it yet. |
