She may have been in foster care briefly. I don’t know the full story. Lots of therapy, good education, creative, self made. Is one of the most phenomenal, nurturing mothers I know. Really excellent thoughtful friend. She amazes me. Life began dark and she worked tirelessly to not succumb.

This is a beautiful story.

This just happened the other day in our town. Murder suicide. Kids are in grad school. Just awful. Not in DMV.

I had a 16 yr old cousin who shot her abusive dad while he was attacking her mom. The mom took the fall and was charged with murder. Fortunately she got off on self-defense. But, wow.
