It's only been the last couple of years that things haven't been great between us - and that was more because of how I felt about things going on with my baby sister and my Dad - and not me directly. But I have to attempt to disregard those concerns so that Noah and I can enjoy spending time with my Dad. It's not always easy - but it is so totally worth it.NMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06013773933321448030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10921896.post-1118375433779396832005-06-09T23:50:00.000-04:002005-06-09T23:50:00.000-04:00What I had a hard time with when people would talk...What I had a hard time with when people would talk to my baby was trying not to answer for her, since she was like 8 months old and had a very limited vocabulary. Why do we do that? It's so silly. <BR/><BR/>I tell Kiri all the time that the man she knows as Grandpa isn't the same man that raised me.

I think that's what they'd feed me if I were in hell.<BR/><BR/>regarding people talking to the baby and not you - I just say "thank you" when they get around to telling bella she's cute or something. I mean, she's not going to talk no matter what they say to her, so it's up to me. and it reminds them that I exist.hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00271974376993899077noreply@blogger.com
