I'm glad this situation solved itself before I wrote about it. The short story is something out of the ordinary happened today with Keven and my first reaction was: he's using! he's lying to me! he's being irresponsible!
Immediately the pit in my stomach started to ache and churn, my heart hurt, my anger was rising, I was a mess!
All this was before I had a chance to hear the whole story. I may have over-reacted a bit, but my thoughts were based in past experience.
Everything is fine, there was a logical explanation (he has a special meeting he has to attend) and I apologized to him for my suspicions. The real shocker, when I apologized his response was:
"its alright, Mom, I understand"
WOW. Wherever my defensive, angry son ran off to, I hope he stays missing, this new kid is so much easier to get along with :)
Peace, Hope and Love, Barbara
