What's bothering you???

LOL! That bothers me too, Misti.

Oh, that's the worst, Misti! TVLand does it with LHOP, don't they?

Some networks squish the screen and start blabbing about what's coming up next while the characters are still talking! :BatHit:

Every Sunday night, I spend a couple of hours writing letters to the children, sketching our animals into their letters, fill them in on everything that's been going on........Well, I talked to Rachel and Jeremiah, and the children are only getting some of the letters. April reads them first, and if she thinks that the letters will remind the children of having lived with us, she won't let them have them! I'm very careful not to make *any* reference to John or April in the letters - just every day stuff. But apparently, she's jealous of the memories that we have together, and those are the letters that she throws away.

So.......now you know what's bugging me today.

That's awful, Savannah. Do you think John knows what she's doing?

That's awful, Savannah! I am sorry that you are going through this.

That's sad, Savannah. The kids need those wonderful memories. {{{HUGS}}}

People couldn't simply forbidde memory. Without memory, there is no life, nor building thinking about the future. All countries of the world are not really countries without their history, their past..and it's the same for the life of a person. A little children could not have their memories so cruelly stealed. I'll pray for you and for them, Savannah.

Vanesa.

Thank you all - and thank you SO much for continuing to pray.

Savannah, is there any ways that you can hold on to all the letters you write and give them to the kids when you visit them the next time?

:sorrysign: I posted what was bothering me, then kind of huffed out here, and totally missed seeing your questions.

Rob, I don't know for certain, but I think that John knows, but just isn't bothered by it. He had told me a while back that he would do anything that April told him to.

Lily....I may have to do that. I had hoped to send letters to arrive mid-week so they'd have a reminder that I'm thinking of them, and praying for them. But if they aren't GETTING them........ *sigh* I just don't know. I need to pray more!

{{{{HUGS}}}}} I'll continue to pray as well.

I had hoped things were getting better. :(

I feel sad when I think about people who has family problems, but much morewhen we are approaching Christmas time. Christmas makes me think at a family celebrating together . Hope your problems could arrange in some way Savannah. Keep praying, my dear. God will hear you, I'm sure.

Vanesa.

Thats bad for them not to let the kids read the letters

That's wonderful Savannah!!

Thank you, Monica! I was pretty thrilled about it, too!


OH - and to get back on topic.......I do have a "What's bothering you" post to add!

It bugs me when someone will go in the self-checkout area, or the express lane that CLEARLY says 12 items or less - and the person has a cart FULL of items!! What part of "12 Items or Less" don't they understand??

I hear ya on that Savannah!! They act like they can't count or read. LOL!

Again, I am happy for you that the kids are getting their letters. ((Savannah))

That's great, Savannah! I bet the kids were overjoyed having a bunch of letters from you to read.
