Sometimes things get a little crazy in life and we often neglect to see the real value in the people in our lives. For example when a husband feels that his wife never backs him up in an argument with HER mother. You know that If you would just butt out and leave us alone things would be okay fight. He says I feel like you always take her side! The wife cries and says " I'm sorry I didn't realize I did that, I don't know why I do I just do! I can't seem to help myself. All my life I have been watching out for mom!"
You see I too feel this woman's pain for I to am the oldest child of a single mother who desperately did NOT want to be single. So for years she chose men over her children and put them all in danger. I too felt like I had to take up for and protect mom from fates worse than death. And I too find myself having a hard time telling my mother how I feel. I don't know why but for some reason I can't talk to my mother about how I feel toward her butting into my relationship. I know she says that she isn't trying to interfere but somehow it never fails she has gotten right into the middle of it all.
The party I am trying to plan with my daughter..... She just waltzed right in and started telling Elise how important the Commitment Ceremony is and that she needs to just get over her fear of standing in front of people.. And it didn't stop there! She tried to analyze my child and tell her that she just needed to be more mature and get over it because this is a family and they want to be there. Half of them don't even Know we are doing this yet!
Anyway I did have a talk with my daughter about the ceremony and discovered the issue and we decided that we are going to have it just in a different context.
So I've made arraignments for the place (we're having it at our church).
I've discovered a place to buy the things for the Luau, like decorations and now all I have to do is call and talk to the woman who is going to make her cake and we will have it made!

Good luck with the party!
All you need to do is tell your mom: "Thanks for your input but I think that we are going to do it this way" - and explain.
I couldn't talk with my mom either until after we had Karrie and after her passing away somehow mom and I seemed closer. Maybe it is because I realized what mom feels since I had become a mom - even though it was for a short time.
Let us know when the party is - maybe we can come up.
Like, My Super Sweet 16, you guys
Well, MTV's new season of My Super Sweet 16 has just kicked off with yet another obnoxiously spoiled teenager.
Very different blog!! I'll be back from time to time.

Thanks Sandy, We for some reason it has been so hard. I guess because we don't agree on how to raise kids and I feel like she is too premissive and she thinks I need to try to be more of a friend.
So needless to say I just have to bite my tongue about child reering around my mother. I need lots of prayers to get through the rest of the month! Lord willing she will be moving next month.
The party is on Saturday October 22nd from 2-4pm here in Tulsa. We will be sending out Invitations next month with and RSVP of Oct. 7th.
Hi Mrs. G. I'm desperately trying to get in touch with other 'single parents'. Do you know of any sites, like this one 'single parent' which might help me to do that? Many thanks.
