It might have if not for the second visit and his words to my sister. I do know that Baby Sis did get some closure, so I am grateful for that because it was really important for her to finally be able to say the things to him she's wanted to all these years.

I'm so proud of you for going and seeing him. That took a lot of guts (coming from me who despises awkwardness and confrontation). I've said this before to you, but I'm so glad you have these photos. <3Risahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01134469272401945848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819142186663515584.post-18410652448294550462016-10-17T14:26:19.475-07:002016-10-17T14:26:19.475-07:00Wow that must have been really tough on all three ...Wow that must have been really tough on all three of you. I'm so sorry that he wasn't around for you guys and that's terrible that he didn't live that far from your baby sister and never saw her.

How incredibly hurtful to her and bless your heart for letting him know. I am so grateful that you got a picture with him as there is love there for you girls from him, he's just such a mentally sick human being with all of the drugs and drinking through the years that it is hard for him to show. You girls though are all VERY STRONG women, loving and nurturing (I may not know Baby Sis, but it shows in her comments and the pictures) and I pray that you all find a peace from having gone for both visits but especially the 2nd one. Neither were easy. I hope some day he reaches out to you 3 first so that you can maybe accept that he does love you all, just doesn't love himself so he can't love the 3 of you well. Love and a great big hug, Auntie!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819142186663515584.post-86097501578379519292016-10-15T13:56:58.662-07:002016-10-15T13:56:58.662-07:00Amber, you have such strength and grace.
