December 23

Today I took my daughter shopping.  Her car was stolen and she has not been able to replace it yet.  Her and I have not always had the best relationship and I must admit I have been reluctant to open myself fully to her.  I have done that in the past and been burned.  She has had a history of just dropping out of my life for extended periods and left me no way to contact her.  But we had a very nice day and I am starting to think maybe this time she really is going to stay around.  Maybe having a daughter of her own has changed her view of things.

I also heard from my son.  He is back in the States.  We have plans to get together on Christmas.  That should be nice.
