Carolyn, I don't know if the markers are just jumping on their own or mean something. But I do know that your little boy has a very honest mom who just needs a massive dose of hugs right now. I'd be totally crazy also. And while my boys are grown (28 and 30), my little granddaughter that lives here is 8. When I have those unknown times, I just load up on tons of hugs and pop corn! Every time your mind tries to travel too far down the road into the future, draw it back to right now. Today is all you can deal with now. Get those hugs and believe that you can do this one day at a time! Lots of love,
mary anne
