I need your prayers
Ellen,
I loved spending time with u last night. You are so good for me. You are looking great. Im sorry to hear you daughter is continuing to cause u stress. I only have one suggestion...have your daughter give me her baby...I'll adopt it and take good care of it...Im more than willing to help u out.
Hi Everyone,
Thank you~thank you for your kind words of encouragement. I just felt I needed to "get it out" before it got me in a real pit of depression. My heart and mind feel so much better
and I am so grateful to have you~ my "family"~ that I can be "REAL" with and know you love me regardless of what my "feelings" are.
I have been working on a new attitude- it is God's baby, and I love it. I just needed to surrender my "feelings" and let God handle the rest. Now I can go from here looking forward. At worship today I really felt like a huge load was lifted off my shoulders- and peace fill my heart. No matter what happens from here I know that it will be OK, cause it is God's will, not mine. Maybe this child is just what they need to bring them closer together as a family and to Him.
Sherri~
I started writing in my journal today & really love the Serenity Prayer. You knew just what I needed- came at the right time- thanks for being so thoughtful~ you are a "SWEETIE!!!!!" I had stopped journeling when this all started and now am enjoying it again.
Mariah,
I did try to talk to her/ them about adoption- to no avail. Tony is determined to raise the baby, and I admire him so much. I found out his youngest sister was born 6 yrs. after his Dad's vascectomy- so maybe it is a male family thing. Same thing happened to his Uncle. However it happened, God planned for it, and we will love it.
The big issue for me now is to remain supportive without getting too involved.Her psychosis is hard to deal with and helping her see reality in issues is a challange. Hopefully the Therepy she is getting will teach all of us how to deal with it.
Thank you my "family" for all of your love and friendship.
You are such a blessing in my life!!!!
(((hugs)))

Hi Ellen,
I'm just now getting to read the weekend posts. I really enjoyed spending time with you Saturday night and I'm sorry I wasn't aware of your situation. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and I hope everything goes well with your daughter and the baby from here on out. I can only imagine trying to deal with this type of situation and I am glad your faith is seeing you through.
