Obviously, we don't know one another, but that is kinda the point of these things, right? <br />For what it's worth. I've worked with all kinds of kids with MAJOR stories (abuse, abandonment (of your same variety)severe neglect etc.) I am now raising three bio kids and 5 foster/adopt kids. And there is one thing that is true for all of the birth parents of these 'kids with stories'. They all loved their children- no matter what the story. Truely.<br /><br />And the other thing? The kids who 'make it'? They are incredibly strong survivors. Sometimes, for no apparent reason.<br /><br />Anyhow, for what it's worth, Good luck in your quest, regardless of the outcome.Triciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14581392888793642746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20550909.post-74554558763577140892006-12-22T09:01:00.000-08:002006-12-22T09:01:00.000-08:00I"m only not feeling sorry for you because you tol...I"m only not feeling sorry for you because you told me not to...<br /><br />Otherwise I would be...<br /><br />Wait, isn't me pointing that out kind of like me feeling sorry for you?<br /><br />Sigh...I dunno anymore. ;)<br /><br />Steve~Stevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11211562240483067865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20550909.post-12633221514066996862006-12-21T21:25:00.000-08:002006-12-21T21:25:00.000-08:00Dang, the blogosphere is all fired up with the hol...Dang, the blogosphere is all fired up with the holiday spirit! <br /><br />Pamela - I know what you mean. After having my daughter, I remember looking at her that first 9 mos. and thinking, "How could I leave her?"<br /><br />Marnie - I'll bet babies can really withstand these things better in some ways. Not knowing what it is "supposed to" be like, you know? And yes to the pain, but I know what to steer clear of. Elliptical trainer = good. 5 miles on the treadmill = bad.<br /><br />(Poo Woo is my dog, for those who didn't understand KMC's comment.)<br /><br />Matt - How did you know that Joe Dirt is one of my favorite movies?Tiggerlanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12084094580971149293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20550909.post-90904880413018902852006-12-21T19:20:00.000-08:002006-12-21T19:20:00.000-08:00That's why dad left you.
