Dear Family, please read this...

After re-reading my previous post, I realize how insensitive some of my comments were. I think I must have been feeling especially...I don't know, crabby that day. Still, it's no excuse to say/ er...write...things that could be hurtful to the people I love, so I apologize.
You are my family, who I love dearly, and who love my daughter as if she were your own. Please know that you can call her anything you want! She is "your" girl...."your" granddaughter, "your" niece, "your" cousin. I should know that I don't have to worry about being replaced (as one of the girls on a message board I belong to put it). She knows I'm her mommy. And she's such a lucky girl to have so many wonderful people who care about her. So am I.
Thanks for taking the time to read this. I'd appreciate it if you'd leave a comment just so I know it was read.
LOVE YOU ALL!

I think that sometimes new moms' hormones and emotions get the best of them. I understand, and yes, we do still love you.

I don't blame you one bit for saying what you said. She is your daughter, and I know when other more distant relatives or friends try to claim her as their own, it might be a little frustrating. We do all love her very much, and we love you and Shawn very much as well. Don't feel bad.
