I did great on Mother’s Day, all things considered. Then today my youngest daughter - who is in regular communication and we are doing well even considering she lives several states away - she happened to mention that her older sister - who is no contact at this time - texted with her to wish her happy Mother’s Day- I handled it well at the moment . However now- in the quiet of the evening - I had waves of sadness. The holiday didn’t just slip past her. She choose to not acknowledge me yet again. It’s been 19 months - which is not time considering how long others have endured - however everyday is a day I don’t get back. Just sad. I know all I can do is work on me and cherish my relationship with the daughter who is in contact - just saying this is hard.
