For the love of a mother

For the love of a mother, there is no other, it's just the greatest in the world.

Always there always caring, always there always sharing, mother's love is known around the world.

Honored on this Mother's Day, for loving all in every way, thank you mother for all your loving care.

Always there always giving, she makes our life so worth living, mother's love gives comfort when she's near.

Through the day our thoughts are with her, through the night our heart will miss her, mother's love is with us everywhere.

Honored on this Mother's Day for loving all in every way, thank you mother for all your loving care.

For the love of a mother, there is no other, it's just the greatest in the world.

Always there with hands of healing, always there to share our feelings, mother's love is filled with tender care.

Honored on this Mother's Day, for loving all in every way, thank you mother for all your loving care.

All the things you've said and down, untold love for everyone, mother's love is meant for you and me.

Giving all the gift of life, father daughter son and wife, mother's love, there's nothing to compare.

Honored on this Mother's Day, for loving all in every way, thank you mother for all your love and care.

Anon A here :)
We did quite well with our first mothers day together. Maybe the past 4 years without a mom made her really excited to get to participate with the school project and such. Who knows - she did not mention bio mom one single time. So we will save planting a bush in bio mom's honor for another time. Or she is really just not ready to deal with all of that yet. We have a lot of trauma work to do still when she is ready. But for this year, we had a pretty great mother's day. Yeah!

My bio kids (18 & 16) were pretty great too. I am a very blessed woman!

I'm so glad Anon A!!! Has she received a diagnosis of RAD? It may be that she just has some attachment issues and not full blown RAD.

She has received a RAD diagnosis from several different specialists - but that was before coming into our home. She also had a disrupted adoption before coming to our home. We believe she is healing and cautiosly attaching. But for whatever it is worth, she woke up mean as a snake this morning. oh well - we just celebrate the good times!

Sometimes after a really close family time mine will be upset the next day. They fear the closeness.

I hadn't thought of that. I had attributed it to Monday - she has 5 whole days of school before her. And it was raining as well. Rainy days and Mondays always get her down. :)

But I your assessment makes sense. We have experienced that in the past. We had a very successful Spring Break vacation and she called CPS to come pick her up after we got home. She really would have moved out if they would have let her. She said "It's not you, I've just been here long enough. That's what I do - I move." So you are probably correct that the closeness makes her want to retreat.

It must be sad for our kids to live in so much fear of closeness. We should be thankful for the gift of being able to give and recieve love.
