A Visit with my Mom

Mom came into town this evening to see the kids... She is a completely different person now that she is "separating" herself from my dad. Yet she got off the plane and pretended like nothing was wrong but I personally could see right through her. I just hope that she makes good choices in this situation and that she doesn't stomp on people on her way. I do know that she needs to stop leading people on and she needs to set things right. It is ripping the family apart and I can't stand it. I want so much to go give my dad a hug and I can't because it is a 20 hour drive to get there. Hopefully in a few weeks I can just show up and give him a HUGE, HUGE hug. Okay enough of that time for bed 7:30 is fast approaching.
