childhood abuse survivor: Christmas tree

Childhood Abuse Survivor

I have hit some magical age where my childhood abuse has caught up with me.... but I will not let it win, and will fight and know that God will see me through just as He always has.... my goal in this blog is to share with others and to vent as well about the experiences of childhood abuse, not just the physical abuse, but the emotional as well. The old saying about sticks and stones break bones but words can never hurt.... they couldn't be farther from the truth!!

I have two wonderful daughters and am blessed that God chose me to "break the cycle" and above all, they know that I love them with all my heart and they are great girls!!! Right now though, I just need to make some peace with my past.... (and if you met my mother, you'd understand... hahaha). I know that know matter where I am at in my journey though, that God is ALWAYS with me!!

Christmas tree

So I hate Christmas trees and why?! I'm a kid, my mom tells me when can do a real tree. Yay! so me and my grandma get one, set it up, decorations and all. apparently, it was not to her liking. She threw it away- the whole thing. I got it and dragged it down two doors to my grandma's in tears. family drama ensued and eventually the tree went back up only if my mom decorated it. At that point it really didn't matter.....
