I had the best mothers day

I was so sad all day and cried and was just so grouchy.I have been having some problems with my sons gf,that is putting a strain on our mother/son relationship.She thinks he should put her up,higher then mom to prove he loves her(childish little girl she is).I know he loves her,and was so afraid she would convince him to not talk to me.Maybe that's what I get for thinking,but when I tried to call him 6xs over Saturday and early yesterday,he would not answer his cell phone.I cried and cryed.All though I have had some bad times with him and his choices,I cant bare the thought of not seeing him on mothers day,as any mother would right?I finally told Dave at 5;30 last night,I am canceling M/D dinner at my house,take me out to eat.The more I sat here the sadder I was.We hurried the girls around,and locked up the house,out of anger I took the spare hiding key from outside.5 minutes down the road,my cell is ringing FROM HOME.MOM WHERE ARE YOU ITS M/D?I was liked how'd you get in,he said,"I figured you lost the outside key,so you left the window on the deck open"I could not get the car turned around fast enough.When I get here he was like,mom I didn't want to tell you but......I dropped my cell phone in water at work the other day and ruined it.I WAS SO HAPPY.Well that broke cell phone was mine,I need to replace it for him.We all had a late dinner,and my place was trashed.I have lots of flowers from the kids.My heartache was awful yesterday,but when Brian showed up,I swear I wanted to just hug him to pieces and rock him in the rocking chair.He will never know how much that meant to me.

Me again, We seem to have alot in common. You were lucky your son came to see you. Mine didn't, again. His wife has completely pulled him away from our family. I have to go to his job to speak to him. He is my only son and has lukemia. His wife has no reason for what she is doing. I have always been nice to her. He had chemo all summer and I had to go sit at the cancer center in order to see him. He is in remission now and I pray its a long one. the last was 4 yrs. I have two beautiful grandaughters that I'm not allowed to see. My mom died jan 23rd and in the funeral home granddaughters kept looking ove at me and smiling then checking to see if Mom saw them. It was so sad. My son allows it because she has threatened to take the kids and keep them from him if he comes near me. He knows his life will be short and wants to be with his kids. I have four dd's who aren't allowed to see there brother also. I did have a nice MD with my girls tho. There was a sadness in my heart that my boy wasn't here but I am thankful for all of my girls. I hope things work out well with your son. Hold on tight. Sharon

Wow Sharon,This may sound crazy but my mom who's name is also Sharon,was completely pulled away from her son(my brother)also.His wife really has know reasoning as to why she caused this but,went as far as to relocate to a different state to keep us all apart.When my dad died,they never showed for the funeral;(He said he stays to be near his kids also.Although those kids are all grown now,she became pregnant again,and we have heard

My son never called. We have caller ID and there were no calls while we were gone. I feel so sad that he would do this to me. His Dad and I are divorced but still friends. He has done the same thing to his dad and step mom. His wife wants him all to herself and will go to any length to do it. We were so close at one time I can't belive he would allow this. I miss my grandaughters also. They have no gramma now cuz her mom died last year. Have you ever heard the saying, "a daughters a daughter all of your life, a son is a son til he takes him a wife". Whoever made up that rhyme must have had a son like mine. I do pop into where he works and visit with him once in awhile. It just hurts that he doesn't seem to care about contacting me. Sharon
