The Challenge some people bring.

It amazes me in this walk that I take daily with E at the way some people try to twist it around and make it all about them or even about my other children. I have spent my entire life trying to protect all of my children from heartache and pain and yet it seems that the same things that I have done to protect them are the things that end up hurting them the most (at least in this person's eyes). Imagine that. There was really not any time for anyone in the family to say goodbye to Jv before she left and I did it that way on purpose. Why in the world would I open my home to people who were no where to be found to say good bye to someone they were never there for to begin with? Things that make you go hummmm. I made my decisions with E for a reason and we stand by them. That has cost us the rest of the ties with the family and in all honesty it is alright with me. What pisses me off the most is when that so called family seems to think that they are entitled to something in what they are not even close to being able to call tangible. We have all made decisions in our lives and sometimes we regret them at some point and sometimes we do not. While I can say there are only two people that I would have wanted Jv to see before she left so they could say goodbye to her and that would have been her sisters. To hell with everyone else. What did they do for Jv? Nothing. They were not there for her when she was a baby, they did not want to be the family to her that they were to my older girls. They outcast her and we were the only thing she had for 19 months. The girls had nothing to do with that. They are and will always be her sisters. There is no reason to post all over social media that you celebrated her birthday with them when it was like pulling teeth to get you here to celebrate her first birthday in the first place. Bet you the rest of the family who is praising you for your efforts and for 'being such a good mother" have no idea when that baby was born yet they really should never be able to forget it considering it was the same day as their mother's, grandmothers. great grandmothers memorial service. Oh and don't think I did not notice that her grandmother was not involved in the celebration. Show's how much she cares yeah? These things do not go unnoticed and when the time comes they will be reunited with her but as for the rest of the family.......They can all go to hell. It will be up to her but believe me she will be told how they treated her when she was a baby and how they were no where to be found. I am not about lying and I am not about to start now. Good luck with explaining that when the time comes. OH you know what? Those are the words that you told me so long ago but I am prepared when the other times come and I will be able to explain with no problem because guess what the truth is always easy to tell.
