He needs you, your guidance, your support and your love. You came through and that is the most important page in the parenting book. writekimwritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02910094603036735657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7724394291330902141.post-61965374316392485192014-03-05T22:22:32.420-07:002014-03-05T22:22:32.420-07:00My kids may have been a little more talkative, but...My kids may have been a little more talkative, but when they had the 'real' stuff to say, it was always like this too, waiting till the end. And maybe like you, I was anxious about what it might be? I think you hit it right, socked in the stomach on both these things. No-they can't have his car for collateral, & no, the coach shouldn't have said that without talking with you too. I don't think you missed the page, you did good, but other people don't exactly help do they? Hope you're doing okay. I know you're busy with your mom too, but if you'd like to meet for coffee sometime, just let me know!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7724394291330902141.post-47176479351152005722014-03-05T21:26:11.761-07:002014-03-05T21:26:11.761-07:00Carol - good for your for staying calm during a pr...Carol - good for your for staying calm during a pretty intense conversation.
