She's technically not old enough to be my mom but she is who I admire and have looked up to since moving here 12 years ago. Whenever I need parental advice I call her and she never steers me wrong.Darilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04161362917236525807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6585683677781096668.post-89687031660592938802011-04-05T22:51:35.336-07:002011-04-05T22:51:35.336-07:00Hmmmmm..... Do I know her? I think I do! I think...Hmmmmm..... Do I know her? I think I do! I think I had dinner at her house tonight with all my huge family and she cooked an amazing meal for all of us, AND insisted on me bringing my FIVE wild kids (half of them with add or adhd) to her house. My real mom, who was also there told me not to bring the kids! HAHAHHA!!! Your adopted mom made my sister call me and insist on bringing them! <br /><br />I put a few of your clues together. Am I right about this? If so, I say GOOD choice on the new adopted mama!Corinne Ritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13962324323573258852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6585683677781096668.post-70619657264696668572011-04-05T11:54:22.386-07:002011-04-05T11:54:22.386-07:00I feel fortunate in that I still have my mother to...I feel fortunate in that I still have my mother to call on when I need her advice. I know just what you mean about feeling as if you need one in order to teach you the things that you haven't yet learned in this life.<br /><br />I am so pleased that you have an adopted mother or two, on whom you can call when that particular need creeps over you. The wisdom and reserve of those more experienced than ourselves is a great gift.<br /><br />: )Deenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08232302315393178361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6585683677781096668.post-57610756527923589232011-04-05T06:38:44.955-07:002011-04-05T06:38:44.955-07:00Julie, I have to say how much I am enjoying your b...Julie, I have to say how much I am enjoying your blog. Thanks for all the wonderful comments you've left on mine. <br /><br />Adopted Mom's are the best! How wonderful to have someone to cry on their shoulder and make you feel fabulous when you least expect it! What a great blessing these women are!Sondrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07431585932397028005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6585683677781096668.post-56432681052725803492011-04-05T06:36:10.598-07:002011-04-05T06:36:10.598-07:00That warms my heart so much.

But my faith in humankind (and in our Church family) tells me that when my heart aches for someone far away, or even just when they're on my mind, if my circle of influence can't touch them someone else's can. Someone else who can't do anything for me here, who doesn't even know me, can help them there.<br /><br />I bet your adopted mom is just as happy with the arrangement as you are :)Alysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13227873855990198122noreply@blogger.com
