After I read a book with my D, I was walking by her room with my S in my arms and I said, "I love you, baby, have sweet dreams," and kept on walking. About 5 steps down the hall I hear my D say, "I love you too. You are my joy." I stopped cold. Pleasantly stunned. I asked her what she said and she responded, "I love you. You are my joy." I told her, "Thank you so much, baby. I love you. Have sweet dreams." I cried with my son in my arms. I am still crying tears of joy.
What an amazing gift you have with your children... this made me well up with tears.
The Serenity Prayer has been a source of much comfort to me as well. Not to high-jack your post... but on top of my separation I'm dealing with the loss of one family member to cancer and 2 others newly diagnosed..with poor prognosis.
Good luck on your journey.. I hope you reach your ultimate destination and restore a nurturing, healthy M.
Take care.
