Our kids only know one grandparent and that is my mother. They do not know my husband's parents or family and the sad part about that is we live only miles from his mother and brother. It is so sad to know we are not the only ones with such estranged relationships with our parents but isn't it amazing at how we have overcome our parent's shortcomings and I think it has helped us to be better parents to our kids. I cannot imagine not knowing my children...no matter how hard and stressful it is at times. Sounds a lot like my relationship with my biological sperm donor only perhaps a bit better.

I'm glad you did because it led me to your blog, and it was nice reading this post of yours. Well, I mean it wasn't so nice how your dad has treated you (or, more appropriately, failed to treat you) for the duration of your life, but I always find it touching when people share such soul-touching aspects of their lives. I had a dad who was physically there... but emotionally, he was nowhere around. It was hard. Now that I'm an adult, however, things have gotten somewhat better. I truly hope your father makes good on his word and is there for your children. He owes you that much. -Jen First off, thank you for commenting on my post!
