I love my parents so much. It grows even more the older I get. You'd think that after 20 and some years that it would level off. But it doesn't because the older I get the more I have in common with them. I understand them more and we can talk like friends.

I love it so much I'm welling up just writing about it.

Wait until you are in your 30s, and then all of the sudden they seem to really have aged. I love my Daddy...he's the man!

After my fiance died last year, I thought no one could make me feel better. I was wrong. My Daddy told me that things would get easier but that I'd never forget. Just don't hold on too long, he said.
Who knew our parents really do know best?

Oh Sassy I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine.
Your Dad, oh man I can't imagine ever being so wise and brave enough to say something like that.

Thanks, but I'm okay now. Life moves forward. Didn't mean to bring you down! LOL

I love them but boy, does my mother make me crazy!
Dad not so much. Or at all. Why is that so?

Don't be sorry Sassy, you don't bring me down at all. I appreciate your openness.
And who knows, maybe that's how we learn to be wise in time, by learning from others, what they've been through, and how they got through it.

Krissie - Ak your mom. I used to hate mine about as much as a child can, she was HORRIBLE. But then she went through menopause, got on the right drugs and I moved out. I've forgiven her for the past and now it's like we are best girlfriends. It sounds insane and impossible but it's true.

The only advice I guess I could give is to try and get through this, (the time that you have to actually live with her) the best you can and try not to burn bridges with her. I would be really sad now, after all is said and done if I would have cut her completely out of my life.

GGAAAWWDDD I would have NEVER EVER OMG Never thought I would be typing those words 10 years ago.

I hope you make it through, and I can always pray. Just ask Sassy.

I wish I had gotten to that point in my relationship with my mom before she died. Because of course now I'm older and wiser. And yes, I should of listened to her... she was right! lol She knew I loved her, but I was such an ass.
