Thank You "r."

If I knew how to operate this software and my computer better, I would have a link that directs you to the comment made on my blog entry from yesterday. Since I am not that technologically savvy, I will have to count on you to look at it for yourself.

I bring it up because it is one of the reasons I find this blog, and other blogs like it so useful. There are points of view mentioned that I haven't always thought about.

No, "r." I did not take it as a lecture. I am hopeful I took it in the spirit in which it was given.

I do think about what to say to Shy when she starts asking questions. Actually, she already does ask some questions, and I have got those down pretty good, but I know there will be more and more questions asked as she gets older, and I suspect that they will not get any easier. I have often thought about what the answer will be if the question is "Why did my mother stay with my father and choose him over me?"

I didn't really know what the answer would be, and I think I have a few more years before that will come up as right now she doesn't know the full reason for why she came to be with us. What we have told her is simply that her parents were not able to keep her safe. That has been fine with her at this age. She is very accepting of that answer and quite comfortable with it.

I know better to think it will stay that way, and I am sure that other question will ultimately come and I will need an answer. I think the information provided by "r." will certainly be helpful, as well as other information I have received while writing this blog.

I hope you find it useful as well.

Thank You "r."
