I know your daughter will realize that what you do for her is out of love, and that you just want the best for her and for her to be loved and know that she can count on you and Shawn. I know she knows and she will realize it too, and I am sorry for you having to go through this pain I am here for you always ((HUGS)) Steve I’m so sorry my friend I know you have been going through a lot, and I want you to know I’m here for you to give you an ear or a shoulder or just a friend to tell you that they care.

I know your daughter will realize that what you do for her is out of love, and that you just want the best for her and for her to be loved and know that she can count on you and Shawn.

I know she knows and she will realize it too, and I am sorry for you having to go through this pain I am here for you always ((HUGS))

Someone once told me that children become obnoxious teenagers in order to make it easier for us, as parents, to allow them to fly free when the time comes. If children remained cute and adorable, like when they were small, we'd all still be living at home with our parents. Losing a child, even one you've never met and were never able to hold, leaves an incredible hole in your heart, a hole that will never be filled until the day you meet once again. Blessed be. Lady An She’ll only fully realize your good intentions when she is dealing with your teenage grandchildren. :)

It seems to work, but I generally need to drag myself out of bed first and that, sometimes, is just too much.
