At the park with my son.
He's so beautiful and it's such a nice day.
His mother will not see her son grow up. These memories that she will never hold. She's out chasing dreams when she has the best in the world playing right next to me.
Her loss

I know... .enjoy your day with your son. She will come around eventually. This is temporary. I feel bad for him... .yet he is so lucky to have such a wonderful Father that is willing to be there for him. I think a big part of her problem is her addiction. I have seen allot of women with BPD use their kids to fight with the Fathers. Usually keeping the kids away from the Dads. Enjoy your time now... .hopefully she will clean up her act, but then you will have a different kind of problem. Be careful what you wish for. It is too bad they can't see what they are missing. I keep wishing mine realizes what a mistake he made... .the only thing is, he has a child now and he may like that. I have no way of knowing. I do think he has gotten himself in way over his head when it comes to where he is living. Picture a sweater-vest, preppy guy out shooting guns with hillbillies... .it really is strange. I want to make a point as well, I am not putting down hillbillies, they can be the most god-fearing, honest, decent people. It is that he is just not that person and I don't care how much mirroring he does, I know they can see it! He told me they made fun of how he dressed. They really will never make sense to us I suppose. I bet they don't even understand. Glad you had a nice day... .

Thanks Herodias
I will never understand her, I've been crying too. My son doesn't notice. I just can't imagine anything more important than watching a child grow up.

I know... .especially for a Mother. Sorry you are sad... .it seems like a sad day. I think we are at the beginning of the holidays again. I think that is in the back of our minds. Maybe you can get him around more of both of your families, so he can get to know them.

That's true, and he loves both sides of the family. He spent the afternoon with grandma and nephews yesterday. He loved it. Thanks again.
Cheer up

Oh good... .that's important. I think you are missing her... .I understand. Thanks, I am a bit better. I think I like night time better, so I can distract myself with TV and then go to bed. ; )
