"hugging a porcupine" - what a great description. My porcupine has been with us for 3 years and we still are not connected. But I keep trying day after day. And there are times when I think that I have no feelings for her except frustration, but then something will happen to her and I get that mother bear instinct and I realize how much I do love her. So I focus on that and keep trudging forward. I don't believe we are horrible mothers - we have very challenging children and the fact that we are still here trying, makes us all pretty great mothers, IMO.
