I had a date with my son today

Many of you will remember the family feud I was involved in. My family judged and condemned my fiance before they knew him. Well this has lasted way too long. It will be 4 years in a few months. The day before yesterday my younger son(he will be 28 in a few weeks)called me and invited me to lunch. The date was set for today. I missed him so much and it felt so good to see him again. The meeting went well but it is going to be a while before all the hurtful words that were said during the feud, to be fogotten. This was a ″break the ice″ meeting and I hope, with time, that we will be able to be a family again.

Practice forgiveness and soon you will forget it too! Even pray on it that also helps the human thing inside you while he is trying to meet you half way!

Thanks for your replies Fred and Bonnie. I am a mother. I can forgive my kids anything but my partner was deeply hurt by all this and so were my sons and none of them forget or forgive easily so it looks like I will be in the middle to play referee which I hate. Lets just hope it wont be for very long. :rolleyes:

Mc,

I'm so happy for you. As Bonnie said baby steps, but definitely a very positive forward move to long awaited resolution. I'm sure it was wonderful to see him especially knowing now that the ice is broken and he'll be back in your life.

I am so happy for you. I know you have been looking forward to this day for so long. I also think baby steps & with God's grace all the wounds will be healed.

mc, i am happy to hear that you met with your son after a long absence. hopefully with time issues will be resolved. as adults we need to forgive and forget alot of times with our children and move on. they are'nt perfect angels like we wish they would be and people say things in anger too. so hopefully hard feelings will be set aside and you and your son can resume your relationship.
