I need technical assistance!

I've read the two most lovely responses on my blog from Jackie and Robin!  And I can't figure out how to respond back so I'm just going to do it this way.   

Your comments brought tears to my eyes and a smile on my face all at the same time.  What wonderful things to read and know that you guys truly mean it from the heart.  My Max is a very lucky young man!!   One day you'll see how challenging, difficult, amazing and wonderful it is to be a mom.  It was something I always wanted to be - I think you guys know that when I was 18 I got pregnant and just knew in my gut that I needed to have the baby.  So at 19 I gave birth to a little girl born 7/7/78 at 8:07 and she was 7 lbs. 8 oz.  When I met Jon 10 years later I knew I was going to have his children.  And one day surprise surprise here comes Max.  I wasn't very excited at first since that meant I was going to be pregnant on my wedding day (I already had my dress).    Then 4 months after returning from our honeymoon - we moved from CA to CT and Max was born on Halloween!  He was special from the very first moment and I protected him from everything I could control.   Now he's almost 18 and ready to leave CT for college in CA and I think I'm having some issues of letting go and I don't even realize it.  What a strange cycle of life.  You ladies are amazing women and I am so glad that you are a part of his life, but also that you are a part of mine!  I love you.
