My favorite nights are laying across the bed late at night with Amber and having her reveal to me parts of her day and her life that she trusts me enough to share..it doesnt get any better than that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18398783366137119513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1263308152895310127.post-34860091834931409532009-07-29T13:56:43.932-07:002009-07-29T13:56:43.932-07:00I miss your mom too.

It's funny how something that happens makes you think of different people that are or have been been in your life. I guess that's Gods reminder to us of them. She & I had some good times together working at CHA with eggs & festivals, etc. She became a dear friend to me. <br /><br />So how is your Dad doing? Been wondering about him too.<br /><br />By the way, I love your posts and can't hardly wait some days to see what's happening in your life. You have a wonderful way of expressing yourself and you make me smile and sometimes laugh out loud.<br />Keep them coming!Helen Rutroughnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1263308152895310127.post-10299303401322833892009-07-29T06:29:48.814-07:002009-07-29T06:29:48.814-07:00Your mom would be so proud of you.

I think it is a mother's evil side, the "I told you so" side. She probably thinks too that you should give me that recipe... It sounds wonderful! <br /><br />Your mom was amazing!

To avoid unnecessary conflicts, children need to know that such feelings are normal and natural. We can spare a child much guilt and anxiety by acknowledging and voicing his ambivalent feelings.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.bluepixo.com" rel="nofollow">Join <b>BluePixo Entertainment</b> - A place for mom and dad to share topics about parenthood and get a chance to win an <b><i>iPod Nano</i></b> </a>BluePixohttp://www.bluepixo.comnoreply@blogger.com
