Today I had to attend traffic court, some woman pulled a u-turn in front of me as I was driving down my street and boom, bang.. she was at fault but I didn’t have my insurance card with me, therefore I had to attend traffic court.  Thank goodness all I had to do was prove I had insurance at the time and case dismissed.

I was so stressed over having to go to court but in the end it all went smoothly and I was the 3rd person called so I was in and out within and hour and a half.  After court I took Taylor out to eat and she played with a little boy for an hour or longer, while his mom and I chatted it up. 

Sometimes we meet people along the way that either help us or allow us to help others.  She was a single mom in her early 30’s with a son and wanted some guidance on relationships, kids and following your dreams and it isn’t often that someone approaches me for guidance but we talked for a couple hours and I hope I offered her some guidance and it also helps me to look at myself and my family.  We discussed marriage and commitment and being able to give of yourself , we talked about our kids the sacrifices we make for them to have a better future.  The type of role models we want our children to have and being able to love step-children when you are in a relationship with someone from a previous marriage or relationships.  We just talked about every thing we could and we discussed how she has relationship fears of not wanting to end up like her parents who have been together for 45 yrs and now her father is going outside his marriage and the pain her mother is going through, the anger her father omits on the family and the stress it has on everyone.

It was just good to talk to another mom, another woman not like myself with a different back ground but really we are all alike as we all struggle in life with parenting issues, relationship concerns, family problems and trying to find our career path.  Why we met and shared so much I am not sure what brought us together but we shared more with one another than we probably had shared with other people in our regular daily lives. 

So, in our meeting she shared with me some of her struggles and concerns and I shared some advice and I hope offered her something she can work with, of course I am no relationship or parenting expert but I have over come alot through the years and learned how to stay committed and how to work through my struggles and learn to pray and stay strong in my beliefs and to know we can over come any challenges we face in life and come out stronger and a better person for the struggles we face in life. 

So, a chance encounter with Camerons mommy..it was great to meet you where ever you are and I wish you the best in life..!! So, that was Tuesday, my Wednesday will be back to trying to get my swimming pool back up in running as all the rain has turned it green over night..have to get that corrected ASAP!!  Til next post !!
