Thumbs up Whoo Hoo!

A little continuence to my post about the refreshing change in my RAD.
I just couldn't resist telling my SR friends this one. She was promoted to Assistant Manager today at work. I just can't believe it. It has been so long since she has made me proud of anything. She said, "Mom it has taken me a long time to get here, please have faith in me, I think I am starting to get it."

I want to have faith in her but I am still afraid. But, I think I am starting to get it too. I am going to let life unfold for her just the way it is intended to.

Today I am crying happy tears........

Tell your daughter that she should be proud of herself. I believe that when our addicts put as much into staying clean as they did in getting high, they can accomplish so much. Hugs, Marle

A few years ago, who'd have thought those words would have such WEIGHT? I love this... thank you for posting. I wish you both a joyous life!
