In reply to Barbara.

Thank you for the kind words Barbara. It’s not easy. I suppose it will get there with time – letting go. I think the thing that keeps me going is the idea of finally being able to travel without having to worry about where I’ll get the money. That and I have awesome friends and family who are there for me when I’m sad.

Thank you again! Your words were very sweet.

Mylene, cry as much as you can. A piece of you is leaving, but he will only be one hour away. Look at your accomplishments and what you have sacrificed to ensure that Jacob has what he needs. Be so very proud of him as he is of you. Children raised, especially by working single parents make better adults as they see how hard mom or dad work to ensure their children are provided for. Been in the same position for years and so thankful that my children turned out to be hard working adults. Take pride in what Jacob will make of himself, thanks to you and all who have supported you over the years.

Now, it’s time to sit back and enjoy what you love the most……travelling. Take time for yourself now, enjoy life and all that it has to give you as you have given so much.

Letting go of our chilfren is ALWAYS so difficult!!! It doesn’t matter how young or how old they are. A mother holds her children’s hand for just a little while, but holds their heart forever!!!

Here is a poem I have kept for a long time:

SUCCESS

You can use most any measure
When you’re speaking of success.
You can measure it in a fancy home,
Expensive car or dress,
But the measure of your real success
Is the one you cannot spend.
It’s the way your kids describe you
When they’re talking to a friend.

That being said, I am happy to tell you that I believe you are very successful!!! And I feel so blessed to have been a part of that journey you have traveled with Jacob…even the Crisco and the Penaten Cream in his hair!!!

I love you both so much!
