My Son Rocks, Do you have family like this?

34momma I did at one time, my dear husband as he was always telling me go for it and his encouragement was contagiousl; but now I am on my own as a widow for many years. My son is having a hard enought time trying to find a full time job in this jobless economy here in the Us , he does not need any more streses of supporting my dreams. I am starting to try to fulfill my own dream of writing something that will get pu published. I want to show how I feel sitting here in a retirement center only because I had no place else to go and how I started out as a happy carefree farm kid with no inkling that one day I would be alone with my son only coming to see me weekly.By alone I mean no family unit now and am one of 90 odd residents here. homeless at 85 from a happy kid on the f farm in the mid 30ths.

No i wish their was. I can't even get one of my kids to put their dishes in the sink or toss their laundry down the chute though they are old enough to do so. Sadly I am still searching for my dreams, I have too many things I'd like to try or do but no time or means to do them.

My husband is like that!!! When I wanted to write and self publish a cookbook back in 2005, he was there to help in whatever way I needed. He did a lot of the formatting, and got it on line for me. He's awesome!

You are lucky to have a son like him. Not many people in this world are supportive of others dreams. The opposite is true. There are too many "dream killers" nowadays. My husband is my cheerleader. He encourages me when I need him to and helps me in any way he can. It is important to have someone in your corner. It is a cold, lonely world out there!

Totally awesome momma! Great job raising your son. I don't really have any dreams in the works but I do feel that both my kids would like me too though.
