Thank you so much! I really wanted to be open about the bad times and I hope many people who need to will see it. I think Facebook has encouraged us to present a very sanitized view of our lives. Someone who read my post about my son apologizing had made a comment that got me thinking how important it is for people still afraid like I was, to know that it isn't just the magazine cover mom who can have a successful relationship with her children. Even one who's messed up a lot can start right now making better choices. But that's for the next post, lol!
