I jokingly call her my Mamma Bear. When we lost Michael and people would start to say stupid things, she'd jump right in and put a stop to it, and then kind of protect me from those people from then on in until I could myself. :)<br /><br />And you are right, I am so glad she came to me with her questions. I never thought of our talk as brave, but in all honesty, it really was, we were both so nervous and scared, and it turned out so great, but wouldn't have if we hadn't been willing to have this talk.<br /><br />{{{hugs}}} EsMayEsMayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06331562552269848546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-23647422124862392682013-11-26T22:37:15.722-04:002013-11-26T22:37:15.722-04:00Thank you, Jennelle, though when I was talking to ...Thank you, Jennelle, though when I was talking to her, I was so terrified I was messing up everything I meant, but in the end, I think it worked out. :) And I agree, so much scary information, that it's wonderful to see this place in blogland that comes looking at DD from a place of love, not servitude or obligation or oppression. I am so blessed by this community. :)Es Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15862166523815621955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-36508923972788408782013-11-26T22:35:25.395-04:002013-11-26T22:35:25.395-04:00You know, Elle, I never thought I'd tell my be...You know, Elle, I never thought I'd tell my best friend either. lol It wouldn't be for all friends, so I understand you not wanting to tell her, but if she does ever find out, I hope she'll be open to how much it is helping you. :)<br /><br />{{{hugs}}}Es Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15862166523815621955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-2052585652350193352013-11-26T22:31:50.484-04:002013-11-26T22:31:50.484-04:00Hey Kenzie, I am just glad she let me be so honest...Hey Kenzie, I am just glad she let me be so honest. :) And yeah, still find the idea of the starter kit funny. lolEs Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15862166523815621955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-4175927014915412282013-11-26T22:31:08.307-04:002013-11-26T22:31:08.307-04:00LOL chickadee, she is going to try to find me the ...LOL chickadee, she is going to try to find me the link because I laughed so hard at the notion, so when I get it, I'll have to share it with you guys.

Firstly, I love how your friend came to you and asked those questions because she was genuinely concerned for you and that there was no real judgement on her part. As you said, it's so good she did so rather than 'believing' what she had read. I'm so glad you were able to answer her questions and put her mind at ease and I think it's great that both she and her fiance can see how positive this is for you. <br /><br />I think you have a wonderful friend there who truly cares about you. I also think it was very brave of both of you to have those conversations. Brave of her to ask in the first place and of you to share such details,and so honestly. Good on you :)<br /><br />I want to also add Amen to your last paragraph :)<br /><br />Hugs,<br />RozRozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14326826956049047973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879991995070741632.post-71220420417371975792013-11-24T15:23:08.301-04:002013-11-24T15:23:08.301-04:00What a great post, it's so nice how honest you...What a great post, it's so nice how honest you were able to be with her, especially after she heard all that info.<br /><br />A starter kit?!
