Would someone please...

Would someone please tell me how this happened?

















Thoughts I had last night as we drove home
*Does she know how valuable she is?

*Does she know she is a daughter of God with unlimited potential?

*Did I teach her all the things she is going to need to know?

*Does she understand how strong she is?

*Will she ever need me again?

*Does she know how much I love her?

Okay,now I am crying. You have raised an amazing young women who does know who she is. You should be very proud!
I predict that-yes, you will see her again and your friendship will grow even stronger. (and you thought I was going to say she was going to get married soon, huh)?

I super agree with all of the comments on this page, and since I am her Grandmother, I have the right to brag. Tia is a wonderful girl and will make her mark in this world. I am lucky to be her Grandma, and your Mom. Love you

Mom, I hope you get this and that you know that I always have and will always love and need you. You are the best, and because you were patiant and taught me well I DO know. I owe you my life, my knowledge, and most of all my testimony. I miss you terribly, but know that I am where I need to be. Thanks for all you have ever done for me. I love you!

Thank you for all the comments. I was going to make this a sarcastic post but when it came down to it, It just wasn't in me.

Oh and by the way, that is not B. I know my children (and she came home in Blue and Yellow because we thought she was a HE!)

Awww!! Thank you for helping me appreciate my sweet girl a little more today. It amazes me that someday my children will be grown. It's scary and wonderful at the same time. But I have no doubt that you've raised your children so well! You are a wonderful woman, and I really look up to you. Also, thank you for your post! Yeah, we're staying put hehe.
