We went to dinner tonight with our dear friends. They are slightly older than us so their youngest child is now eighteen. As we were visiting over dessert the conversation turned to one of my children. This child is going(has been going for a very very long time) through a very difficult stage. This mother is NOT handling it well at all. Today was one of those difficult days. I did not win any mother of the year awards today. In fact, I won " scary, mentally crazy person who needs medication" award of the year.
Tonight, these friends listened to me. They didn't have any real answers. They just listened and validated me and my frustrations.
They have survived longer than we have, maybe I will as well.
