What "makes" us and our children are first the past, then the present, and then dreams for the future. Every tear, every laugh, every angry or hurtful word spoken to a child is who they are, as well as who we are! Every unspeakable bit of abuse, neglect and abandonment is who they are. The very best they can be is people who, not in spite of, but because of the past they have learn to live again.
