There is a whole life out there waiting for you that you can't imagine. You couldn't imagine being happy without your beautiful daughter alive on earth? I couldn't imagine being happy without my husband and an intact family the first time around. I couldn't imagine living my life without my children at home and having them having to, you know, run the trains on time. I couldn't imagine all of the things. But now I don't have to imagine them. I have them. It's still hard. I still miss being a mom with little kids running around and cookies and crumbs on the floor and all of that. I miss it. You were at my house. It's pretty quiet, right? But I'm comfortable and very satisfied and very grounded with where I am. And you can be, too. There's a whole life out there waiting for you. You can't imagine.
