Jessalynn

This one hurts the most. Easy Why. The one I believed loved me most. The one I put the most into. 
The one who finds me, personally, disgusting.
She said it is because of how I treat Jeremy. Her mother is almost always mean to him and she went to stay with Jeanette who has literally spit in his face. Plus she ragged on me to throw him out for Months and talked of nothing but how much she hates him.
The girls I called The Apple of My Eye, and then my Unicorn, who I would have given my life for. Says. I'M. DISGUSTING.
I knew she was mean. Overlooked it time after time. She would laugh at people I pitied.  She never forgave a slight. But I always thought she was better than she was. She cried over TV shows!! I just knew there was real Heart there just hidden by Youth. 
I was wrong.

My Grandchildren

In order of birth: Lindsey Perton, Jessalynn Fitzgerald, Joey Manning, Jenise Belk, Michelle Manning, Robert Belk, Jasmine Avant, Riley Belk, and Kira Mundell. I barely know some of them, but I love all of them. I even have a great granddaughter I dont know at all, Addie. Lindsey was the first and was my world for her first 5 years. Or at least what my world revolved around. I still had teenage daughters and even a husband for family those years, but we all seemed to revolve around Lindsey.  Jami and John, Lindsey's father, had a lot of problems. Lindsey was born 1lbs 11oz. I flew to San Antonio when Jami called and said she was in labor and I got there about an hour after she was born. She was unbelievably tiny but she was born a survivor. She was only on oxygen a very short time and then breathing on her own. She did suffer a small brain bleed but the blood absorbed without surgery and we wouldn't think about it again for years. One doctor told us that she likely had cerebr...

RESPECT II

  I wrote about Disrespect, how perhaps I allowed it by not demanding basic respect and that I saw it coming in Kira. And here it is. Also my comment for years that I might be raising another generation to hate me. If I foresee these things why don't/can't i prevent them?? I don't know.   Kira's mantra now is that she hates us, hates our home, "anywhere would be better to live". We all see Kira as spoiled and often obnoxious.  Largely my fault? I have gone "easy" on her and demanded everyone follow suit. She has anxiety issues, biological parent issues. Social issues.  Pretty sure that just made everything worse.  Jess said the same thing about Home when she was about 15. I made her a ward of the state and she was placed in foster care. She lasted one day and ran away to come home.  At the time I didn't see any option. She too was spoiled in many the same ways. Neither did/do ANY chores. Jess's sisters both did chores growing up. I'm not ...

Respect

What happened with Jessalynn Christmas was caused by an old problem caused by a mistake I seem to make over and over. Or maybe it's just the way it is because I'm so flawed. My grandchildren, one of my children, have No Respect for me. Maybe I don't think about it enough? I don't seem to realize that no one respects me until it slaps me in the face. It has to be my fault. I assume that people respect me because I see myself as someone who Should Have the respect of people. I manage to take care of my family no matter how little I have to do it. I have good morals that I base my life on and try to teach others.  But I must be just totally missing something.  I think back over my relationship with Jessalynn and see now that she has never really Treated me with respect. We have spent a lot of time together. I have been the person she turned to for advice and help or just the one she called if she was sad or sick. But I have allowed a large measure of closeness that you wou...
