I run my mouth a lot more than I should and I have this nagging fear that I will say something silly to my girls and that it will stick with them like PD's name story or being told one was an accident. My dad once said I couldn't carry a tune if I had a bucket, and while it is absolutely true, it sucked the joy of singing right out of me....

I am a twin, but I was supposed to be a triplet, and my Mom was never told. She miscarried in her fourth month, and figured she was just having one child after that, and four minutes late, there I was. My Mom used to tell the story, and say my name was picked out of thin air. I got the better name, but the way she said it always cut me.

PS I was 22 and 26 when I had my children. So it's not always about age.

his father was an abusive alchoholic so i can understand her leaving, but i will never understand her leaving her 2 sons. she was going with another man who didnt want her to bring the boys i guess. she had another son with him.

I do not believe a strong, healthy loving mom 'can' do that.
Women who can do that can be very very weak and/or sick. I am so sorry your that happened to your husband. |

hubby's mother put him and his brother in a cab and sent them to his grandfathers house when he was 5. he only recently had contact with her right before she died. i could never understand how any mother could do that. when i was divorcing my 1st husband i lost custody of my 1st son for 9 months and it just about killed me. i would have fought for the rest of my life to get him back.
