Hi, Janet, I'm truly sorry to hear the restriction imposed on your visits with your children. Has that not been resolved since then? Yeah, I do know about the empty nest syndrome, in my case after my ex left and took the kids with her, after having had a house full of this one's and that one's children in my care. I pretty well always had someones kids or grown ups come to visit during those years I lived in the res. Well you could say I was the reservation babysitter, especially on Bingo Nights.
Even after I moved from the res to live in a city of 125,000 that was more like a large town to some other's standards here, I always had someone living with me apartment, sharing. So anyhow, I always had someones kid in the house and I loved it. I was never one who ever wanted to live alone, I didn't like being alone.
I did finally get to see my children again after moving to their hometown about ten years ago. I even had my son in my custody for a time. A couple of years later I went full time and had a friend of mine who left her three children in my care for two years. Thanks be to Great Spirit for having given me the pleasure of having an abundance of children under my roof.
Wing Walker and I got hitched 4 years ago, I don't want to ever be alone and if the opportunity did offer itself for taking in a child in my care again I wouldn't blink an eye to the offer. It does appear that my prayers to never having to live alone have been very well granted through the years
Cindy
