“I’m okay. I’m just tired. Just been going through a lot lately. But I’m alright. I will be okay. I always am. Mom’s just having a tough go of it. Life is difficult sometimes, well, a lot of times…no matter what stage we’re in. And right now I need to sit here and think and figure out what my next step is. So I’m feeling the effects of all that jazz. But I’m okay. I’m sorry I’m crying. I don’t want you to see Mommy cry. It’s going to be alright. No need to worry.
Let me wipe these tears away. Let me blow my nose. I’m such a silly mess.
So tell me, how are you? Are you okay? How is life treating you? I am here when you need me. I’ll do anything I can to help you with whatever may be going on in your life. I know it can be weird or difficult to talk to Mom sometimes but I’m here and I’m not going anywhere. So if you need to talk, you just tell me and we’ll talk.
Don’t you worry about me, sweetheart. I’m alright and you will be, too.”
