I suppose that until I write a DAILY blog, I cannot be considered a true blogger.... oh well. I can't add one more guilt to my life - I have enough.
Disturbed and Worn Out...
Update on the Britt saga - She has now disturbed and worn out her third 'victim.' The father of the family she is living with now has been calling us and lamenting about what she is doing to the peace of their home. ...how she refuses to follow rules of decency and thoughtfulness. ...how she is lying to them.... all of the things that I have been living with and trying to help her get past... really - they were the reasons she left, because we caught on...
Not graduating....
I got a call from her school yesterday, telling me that she is MIA and hasn't been at school for several weeks. Her advisor let me know that the 'story' they got is that we '"kicked her out and would not allow her to live at home." She was having financial hardship, so the little school she goes to bought her a cap and gown! Funny thing is....she is not going to graduate because she is failing all of her classes by not attending.
Anger, Lies and Forgiveness....
I have been patient.... now I am MAD! Weave your lies into your life any way you choose.... until you start lying about me and attacking my character. It's called 'burning bridges.' ...although, a mother always finds forgiveness for her children...it's what we do.
I won't go into more detail, but something is hitting the fan in her life.
Irony....
Here is some irony for you: her sister, Tiff, called two weeks ago and asked if she could come home after being gone for about 3 years.... a prodigal daughter, as it were....
She woke up in the pigpen and realized that she would be better off in her father's home.
She has gone out into the harsh world and found out we were not so bad after all, and wants to come home. She wants to get away from her abusive boyfriend and back to where the rules are enforced, but the love doesn't go away.
Maybe that's what I love about my family and my God..... the love doesn't depend on how you act or what you say.....
....the love just doesn't go away.......ever.
