You did a wonderful job taking us through your highs and lows. Reading, I almost felt as though I was there with you, experiencing every sadness and moment of exhilaration. Well done.

Thank you for the kind compliment. Yes, there were highs and lows. After two years, I really doubted I ever would be a parent and here I am, mom of 3. Just shows you never know where life will take you.

Thanks for reading!

What a beautiful story. Congratulations on your children.

Thank you. My kids are a lot of work but I am very glad I have them:)

It's funny how hard it seemed to live my story at the time but I guess, now that I have 3 kids, it does weave together well.

I never thought I would be a mom. I am very grateful!

You're welcome. :)

I was initially a little wary of the topic, but you handled it well. And revealed a great deal of yourself!

I'm sorry. I know conceiving kids can be very personal so I wasn't sure if it was a good choice but I have little time this week to write so I just decided to go with it. I'm glad you gave it a read anyways and ended up thinking it was ok:)

NO KIDDING! Man. I cannot count all the extremely personal questions I have been asked, about things I can't believe others are wondering and willing to ask me!

Your mom sounds like she's as supportive as my mom. Geez!

My mom can be amazing in her lack of support. (I think you read my entry on her N Personality Disorder, last week?) I don't know why she continually tries to "beat me down" emotionally but it is a pattern with her. My grandparents are trying to help me a little financially with college and she told them to stop as she thinks college is overwhelming me and I am too scared to say so (that is untrue and I needed the help to pay the rest of my tuition!)

Those are just a couple examples. I will never understand her.

::hugs:: IF your mom is like mine, I'm sure you could use some hugs!

Sounds like they were cut from the same cloth, and I really didn't think that was possible for there to be another mother like mine.

*hugs* to you too!!! We need it!
