Now it is her pride that will never allow her to admit that she has been wrong and made BAD choices. She is slowly getting her self back together and even though we do not agree on her living choices she does appear to be mostly happy and content having nothing and therefore nothing to lose is a place she enjoys. she comes and goes does just what she wants except for her shopping being totally stopped. SHe tells me to mind my own business then proceeds to whine about "her situation" I have to continually remind myself that God is in control and that she knows him, and that she is where she has chosen to be. Hopefully the advent of this new job will give her some freedom and power to do the things she wants and to have some control that she has gladly given to her hes my room mate not my boyfriend and she will grow up... she is still a very immature young person but does not have depression nor bipolar disorder to deal with. Thank God for that. and I have preached to both of my children the principals and beliefs of a 12 step program to my kids all of their lives as it is what ultimately SAVED mY life.<br />anyway love you many prayers and you always know wher eand how to reach me if i can do anything to help :)Laura ~Peach~https://www.blogger.com/profile/06436851234824883774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559227461484344655.post-88602189809019548982010-06-28T17:30:24.075-07:002010-06-28T17:30:24.075-07:00I am praying for you ALL!

I just wish I had answers! I can imag...Here again. I just wish I had answers! I can imagine how worried you are---and have every right to be. Although we have trust in God, we still are frail humans.<br /><br />I lost my beautiful, sweet daughter when she was 31. She went to sleep after reading a bedtime story to her 7-year-old and kissing her husband goodnight---and didn't wake up. It was the worst time of my life, and I still miss her terribly after nearly 12 years. But I know where she is. I know I'll see her again.<br /><br />Today I heard a sermon, not about "why bad things happen to good people", but "Why good things happen to bad people"--because the Bible tells us there is none good-no not one--(in God's eyes). So Christ had to die for God to even be able to look on us.<br /><br />I know you all will come through this and stronger---but it's so hard. I am in prayer that Kayla will get a diagnosis that will finally make sense, and in prayer that your daughter's mouth, and growth will be okay, too. <br /><br />I know you're hurting, but honestly, when these things happen, and we don't know what to do---God can do great things with us. Because this is when we finally learn we are not--and never were-- in control of anything!!<br /><br />God bless you!Bluebird49https://www.blogger.com/profile/01195892307835553912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559227461484344655.post-79399044743685069572010-06-27T20:24:32.430-07:002010-06-27T20:24:32.430-07:00You've had a tough go of it, and unfortunately...You've had a tough go of it, and unfortunately things aren't any easier now.
