Read Online SAHM I am by Meredith Efken - Free Book Online Page B

geared more toward the average non-artistic family, just so that our posts are a blessing and not a stumbling block to our Christian sisters.
    I hope I haven’t hurt your feelings. You are such a valuable part of SAHM I Am, and I always look forward to your posts. I just felt like I needed to provide a loving caution so that we preserve the sense of emotional safety in our group. Thank you for understanding.
    With lots of love,
    Rosalyn

    I guess I’m not too surprised she responded that way. Give it a few days and you’ll be laughing. But lay off the head-banging, okay? :)

    Oh, Zelia! I am completely stunned. How could she say such things to you when she writes nearly the same way? I do not understand. I did think that e-mail was out of character foryou, however, there was nothing in it to warrant a reply like that. I am so sorry. I’m not sure I want to be part of a group whose moderators are so unkind. I receive plenty of that sort of treatment off-line.
    Please know I am praying for you.
    Love,
    Phyllis

    Please ignore my previous e-mail. After rereading Zelia’s post, I belatedly realized she was satirizing Rosalyn’s mannerisms. I feel very foolish. However, I tend to be overly serious and humor is difficult for me. Please be patient—I will try to be more on top of things.
    Love,
    Phyllis

    You all are great! Phyllis, I love you, even if you are humor-challenged. We’ll work on that, won’t we, girls?

    Thank you, all of you, for being so gracious to me. I felt really embarrassed.:) But my question is this—why do you stay on SAHM I Am? Regardless of Zelia’s purpose for the e-mail, Rosalyn was unaccountably rude. Why don’t you create a new group?

    I can answer that one, Phyllis. Why make a new group just because some people on the first group get on your nerves? If we had done that, we might not have met you or Brenna or any of the other really sweet women on our loop. But beyond that, you never can tell why a person behaves the way she does. In Rosalyn’s case, we figure something went terribly wrong in her childhood. That’s the only reason we can think of for someone to turn out that way. Just watch—there’s this weird undercurrent when she talks about her family. And someday, if Rosalyn’s “perfect little world” falls to pieces, she’s going to need us to love her, even with all her faults. So that’s why we
