When my mom showed up that day I was kinda shocked at first because I have not seen her in eighteen years. after a while I was okay with her being in my life because it seemed to me that she has her life together. When I saw her for the first time it didn't bother me I just visited with her and we just talked about things or what we up to for the last eighteen years. My mom used to have long brown hair, blue eyes, and she was skinny and she is about five feet five inches. But now she has short hair and a little billy on her. But I look more like my father but only I'm a girlie girl but I really look like my mom at all. I didn't think my mom was a bad mom at all I just think she made some bad choices in life and ended up with the wrong men like my sisters dad. My dad on the other hand the reason why she left him was because he was lazy and was not making in effort to get a job. so this what I was told because I was only one years old at the time my mom left my dad. about five years later she married my sisters dad but that lasted only for two years because he was abusive towards my brothers and me. I don't think my mom was a bad mom she just didn't make very good choices in life. I am glad she has changed her life after she lost us kids and now she is married to a great guy. His name is Manny I really like him and I wish she had meet him to begin with because he is perfect.

  1. This post really shows how understanding you are about your birth mom. I would think it would be pretty easy for you to hate her or feel really bitter, but you seem to really have come to terms with who she is and what she has done. Why do you think that you have this attitude? Have you always felt this way or did you come to feel this way only as an adult or only recently?

    I'd love to hear more about how your views towards your birth mother were shaped.
