the very worst memory of them all-
I've tried to forget, but can't. When this happened I realized I had hit rock bottom.
He & I were in the bedroom, door closed, locked.
I come out later, only to see my little girl, sitting on the couch, alone. TV was off, there was nobody else around.
I don't know why this was the case. I don't know what I thought she was doing or where I thought she was. I couldn't tell you. But the fact is, she was there, all alone.
I went over and sat down beside her. She looked at me and said,
"Mommy.....am I loveable?"
Does a child ever ask this? What has gone so terribly wrong that my own child has to ask me this question.
