' One Woman's Story"-Chapter Nine
On January 12,2007 we went to see Stephanie and her family. Things started well but ended not so goo at least for Jennifer. She wanted to tell Stephanie how to live her personal life and you can't do that. Jennifer hurt a lot of feelings with things she said during the visit. Richard and I had as good of a visit as we could under the circumstances. I hated to leave there. I was so happy that after 28 years I had finally found my first child. I never thought this would happen to me ever. It was a good but emotional time for me. After returning home we talked on the phone a lot and talked about Stephanie coming up for a visit later in the year. I was very upset with Jennifer for her actions during the visit and once again we were on bad terms with each other. I thought that she could forget the past and put it behind her but I was wrong about that. She has never really forgave me for anything and never will. Things with Stephanie were okay so far but they would change as well. Daughters are very hard to deal with and get along with at least for me. My sons have always been more understanding and loving to me. I always thought it would be the opposite.
