I know how you railed, stuck with it and overcame. I love that strong, opinionated daughter-in-law just as your mother-in-law has also gentled. You both love Frank fiercely and that has been enough to overcome much for both of you. <BR/><BR/>Kudos to you both for sticking it through the years of separation, to arrive at the place of now. Kudos to you for enduring, reaching out, and sticking with it. What a beautiful testimony to inspire and encourage many.<BR/><BR/>I love you sister and your tenacity to love, and stick it through when times are tough and to love and then enjoy the fruit of your labour.<BR/><BR/>Keep loving and be a blessing and reap the fruit!Joyful Foxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10808201481346874191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30458926.post-1819098423521543942008-07-29T00:12:00.000-04:002008-07-29T00:12:00.000-04:00Dear Ang,<BR/>You used almost the same words to describe yourself and "Ma;" strong and opinionated. <BR/><BR/>How true it is that those most like ourselves, drive us a little crazy.<BR/><BR/>I think of my own mum and how I railed against her help when I was a bumbling new mother myself. I regret my pride and independence and wish I'd have been more gentle.<BR/><BR/>Eventually we learn! I loved your tribute to Nonna.Belindahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09251920708783268740noreply@blogger.com
