Hi, Bryn
Haven't seen you post in a while. I sure hope you're staying strong. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Susan
Susan, that is wild.....you are psychic.....what is the chances you asked for me, and I haven't been on in so long........O.K. we must have reincarnated together.........thank you for caring.
Yes, yes I'm just fine.........well, more the worry thing.......thus this late hour post or I should say early morning..........the teen thing.......it's doing me in.
Hope your son is well, and your daughter......oh, I bet the baby is getting big....I'm sure you are missing your mom something terrible though.
Susan, you are one of the most thoughtful, sympathetic, and kind person I ever known........always a Blessing big time when I have you on my side.

Dear Bryn,
Too bad we don't live closer. We could share some early morning hours with each other! lol
Angelina is on a schedule. She goes to bed around 3:00 AM!!!!! I think we're going to have to take her to a sleep specialist soon because everything we have done has failed to get her on an 8:00 or 9:00 PM bedtime schedule. We were told to wake her at the same time every day. When we do, she goes back in for an early nap and then isn't ready for her regular nap until around 8:30 PM. We'll think....Great we got her in bed at 8:30!!!! NO! She gets back up at 10:30 ready and raring to go until 3:00! If we let her sleep until she's ready to get up, she doesn't get up until around 1:00 PM. Then she isn't ready for a nap until around 6:00 and that keeps her going until around 3:00 AM again. We've tried moving bathtime, taking her outside to wear her out (she just takes 2 naps instead), taking her to the mall to run around, etc. NOTHING WORKS!!!!!
I'm so sorry about the teen thing. I think the "letting go" and not being able to know where my children were once they turned 16 and had their driver's licenses was one of the hardest steps for me. Before that, I ran them wherever they wanted/needed to go and pretty much knew they'd be there until I came back for them. I think that step was even harder for me than the "away to college" step, although that was hard too. You just have to trust that you planted good value seeds in them. It's funny but sometimes they don't show the fruits of those seeds until they're "put to the test". It's very difficult being a parent and there are NO PERFECT ones, trust me! We just do our best. Pray for wisdom...it helps!
GREAT to hear from you!
Love,
Susan
