I can feel your grief, I really can. Even though I'm not really there yet.<br /><br />It doesn't seem fair. You did your job so well, that you have two independent, capable young women out there in the world, quite able to fend for themselves. Had you not done as well, they might still be living with you. It's not right, is it?<br /><br />I hope you are feeling better today. And just know that your girls love you so much, I have a feeling they'll never be too far away.Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16042222907090463909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093237880290981781.post-75205528568026973612010-04-07T20:11:20.257-05:002010-04-07T20:11:20.257-05:00Good news Fannie.

Yay, you!
