I love my God Children. I am the proud God-mother to two daughters and two sons and they are my LIFE!!! They have each in their way supported me through many a dark nite. Milyn Satterfield, my eldest, lived with me in New York immediately after my divorce so she came in for some of the bleakest, anxiety-laden, angst-ridden moments and she gave me a Christmas present that I still treasure and I read it again today. It is a Bound Book with my name as the engraved gilt title-and here are her entries (I have given up smoking thanks to Nicorette but those early days had me off the nicotine wagon but I DIGRESS). This present saw me through a Christmas when i scrounged up change to get Anabelle a gift and got a free tree from a kind florist and decorated it with candy from the CVS. I was at the nadir of my despair and it was my first climb out of the abyss of my own fear.
