Amazing apology

[Tink]

My 19 yr old has always been my wild child. She's challenged Greg and I in more ways than I can tell you since she turned 12. Tonight she came to the house and apologized to us for having been such a handful and thanked us for not having given up on her. I was so shocked I got all teary.

It was so nice to see her finally appreciating us rather than fighting against us. I have always hoped that she would mature and realize that we've done what we have out of love for her, not to make her miserable like she used to believe. I just didn't think it would happen this soon. I don't imagine she's going to totally change overnight, but it's great to see she's taking steps in the right direction at last.

It's the sweetest thing that's happened between her and us in far too long. I just had to share my joy!
