Well said Linda. I love reading all the helpful comments on this board. I don't get to visit every day like I used to and guess I missed the posts you mentioned! I talk about you guys to my family and they think I'm crazy because it sounds like we've been friends for a long time. I can't fathom someone not playing fair or being nice. But then again the world is full of all kinds. I want to thank everyone and APQS for providing this board and for their willingness to share their quilting work, advice and lives. I appreciate you all.

God only You know how to bring comfort to Cheri and Elmer and their family. Please comfort them, help them in whatever way they need right now. You know what we want the outcome to be. God please comfort them and strengthen them for whatever the new day will bring. In Jesus name amen,

Sending up prayers for you and Elmer.

I finished some felt coasters on my Milly and then loaded a memory quilt made of my dad's shirts to give to my sister. My oldest son also wanted me to patch his torn jeans. I've patched them so many times I'm putting patched over patches. Lol...... Hope this means I get more quilting time in 2013!

Praying for your son and for the families involved.

Sending up prayers for you Oma. Just stay focused on getting better and remember you've got lots of friends here praying for you. Just keep us posted if you can on how you're doing.

Lucy - I do know at Reactive Attachment Disorder. We are living through it right now with our DD. She is his sister. We have been blessed though because we found a therapist who is using a very new approach - one of love and boy has it worked for us! She has made progress. We've gone from suicidal/depression to tolerance and actually taking steps to accepting us! We're not where she wants to be or where we want to be. It is truly eye opening and I can only say that God is working to change me to be a better mom and better person through her. I hate that she has to suffer so that I can c

Our local newspaper did a story on 1of our sons. It ended up being a front page story. We are very proud of our DS and all of the accomplishments he has made so far. We know he has worked very hard to get to this point. We are also proud of our other children as well and their accomplishments. We are humbled by the outpouring of attention because I don't feel that we've done anything at all. DS and the others have done the work. God simply answered their prayers for parents to come and adopt them. Granted God did answer our prayers also at the same time with the way things worked out. All 3
