You might not be the typical mother, but you are your daughter's mother and that's all that matters. You let people love her, be around her, and even stepped back (example being the Christmas outfit) in order to make HER happy. I think its going to be ok in court today.

You are right about one thing, I would be lost if my kids were taken from me, even for short periods of time (meaning a day or two). What you have gone through has been devastating. I can only try to understand what you have gone through. I might have been irrational and tried to kidnap my kids back. Seriously.

Thinking of you, hope you can check in, as we care about and support you.
