well i can certainly relate to all of this... i have three small kids... twin 3 year olds and a baby, and their father isn't allowed any contact with one, barely knows the baby, she has pretty well forgotton him, at this age, i'm worried about them being confused by all of this, but they are really not old enought to explain anything to them... so unless i am very, very certain of something then they haven't seen them... i have to be honest about my kids and try to explain the best i can to the kids what mommy is up to. my oldest daughter has taken to calling her grandpa daddy, and my baby is just now beginning to come up with d sounds in her speech, although she has said mama for quite some time now. my son could care less however because he's a mama's boy but does need a good male influence and someone to rough him up so to speak... hey i can't do everything... so it is really kinda confusing, but you eventually will have to make the leap... you should really communicate openly with kids about who you are dating, if they feel that their opinion matters, which it really should to a certain extent... they will handle it better... it just depends on how mature they are and what kind of relationship you should have with them.- if you are honest with them and communicate openly and respectfully you can be sure that they will be more likely to do the same and isn't that what we all want
it's a good teaching tool and should be used for that at times, just not excessively...
well, now that makes sense, i can appreciate this little post, thank you
please no religious responses i know you all mean well, but i know most of that.... i do appreciate the thought though...i actually have my own website... please don't take me as being rude
i must say that it is not so easy to go out and do those sorts of things in my current situation.... but i'm glad that you find something that helps you
it's been a bad year and although i have found love, i remeber the loss of my grandfather, which i was too numb to feel, and the loss of so much more that i thought i knew, but was only an illusion, after all....
i recognize the lord's birth and am deeply spiritual, but it doesn't always seem to matter, i think i've been like this on many occasions throughout the years, even as a very young child
why is this time of ear so sad, so depressing...it seems that i remeber the past year with dread, i reflect on it with anxiety and although my christmas wish was granted by god i still feel so sad sometimes..... so, odd......... i love family and being with them, but it seems that i am always desperate to withdraw this time of year.... any thoughts???? i look forward with hope and love but i'm still having a really bad day... does anybody else withdraw this time of year...
to you i give my everything my heart, my bind, my body, my soul i cannot help but think of you in everything, in every way we cannot be afraid i hear your voice and feel your touch as if you were caressing my soul even though you are miles away i still feel your kisses in the wind and your voice in the words i see i hear your voice tremble listen to your breath still and my heart i shall reveal do not be afraid, i will love you always you are in my heart, just stay....
you know it's not so easy to let go of everything, a question for everyone... sometimes you still have to deal with your past, it comes back to you sometimes, and wants to relive itself... do you leave the past behind you when you're with the person you care for and deal with it at another time, i'm thining we should work it out together, walk hand in hand with understanding through the pain, and together learn to trust, again...
this is really very endearing, it makes me think of my own children, and that their birth father is leaving it makes me wonder what is in store for them.... the twins are nearly 3, and a six month old baby
well said, but i do think someone's bragging...lol
sometimes it feels like a lifetime to find someone who wants what you have to give, and you know that if a lady is treated well.... a TRUE lady will spoil the man just as well, but in her own way.... and you know if you find someone who has never been treated with respect you need to have patience... when all a woman has known is abusive relationships it's hard to not be afraid when someone good shows up....it's hard to believe and to let go so she can embrace her feelings
you don't earn a soul mate, but sometimes it may take work to keep one.... sometimes things are hard, but you have to stick it out, and that is a hard, very hard thing to do.
