Remembering Mom, Her birthday is Tomorrow!


       In 1932 on July 3rd, my mother was born. She wasn’t perfect no person is, but she did do one job for all of her kids, she taught us right from wrong and kept us alive. I miss her at times for she could be smarter than an owl, and wiser than a king. But in the end, her emotions would get the better of her, and not everything would come out right in the end. But in the end, she was still mom and all I ever had in my life that was steady, and I give that to her. She died in October of 1991 of cancer of the lungs, one year and one day after her second husband died of the same thing. So, for her and my step-father, after all their love and fighting together, their giving and taking and more, my sister and I paid to bury them together. They deserved eternity together, for it was when they were together alone, that they loved best and were happiest. So, as July 2nd rolls on and the 3rd approaches, I just want to wish my mom eternal peace on her birthday. Loved ya Mom, even if none of us knew how to show it while you lived!

Talking about mom and her birthday and such I give you the link to my story about mom and I called:

 “Confrontations With Mom”—-http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DC3BQK0

It explains why we were always at loggerheads and fighting and why things ended up the way they did. Hope  other mothers and children will read it and not let it happen between them .Image

Don’t Think the missing parent is missing on their own!


        Today’s subject may upset some people, and some children of people who were raised by second parents, like step-moms, or step-dads. But the subject must be discussed because I find the fact the some people think, because their original birth parent is not with them growing up that we forget them, don’t love them or like being replaced or that we left on our own free will, we didn’t. Parents leave their children behind for many different reason and if the parent is decent they will come back later and try to straighten out the feelings their children have of abandonment. We didn’t ask to be divorced, nor did we ask for the circumstances we had at the time, and not always are we responsible for leaving, we were forced out by the parent your living with, always remember that! Choice had to be made at the time of the leaving parents departure, like where would my kid or kids be better off, why would they be better off there and would  I or could i raise them on my own. For many fathers the truth is they won’t be able to handle raising a child on their own, they work too much and they can’t handle all of it alone. Even if most father’s won’t admit it it is true! 

        No father, or mother would voluntarily walk away from their child, unless they are on Alcohol or Drug Addicted, or Mentally Ill in some way.So the assumption by many children missing one parent or another, is the automatically to blame the missing parent. Wrong folks, it is more likely the parent you grew up with, the mother is the one that asked for the divorced and forced the father out for her own reasons. So reevaluate it and see the truth.
