Well, yesterday was the big day - my son adopted his step-daughter.  I took a purse full of tissue and I was able to maintain appropriately.  I cried but kept it in tact!  I was emotional but appropriate instead of wailing!   We had a dinner later in the evening and I gave them a gift (a sand dollar mom picked up at the beach before she passed away, the story of the sand dollar) as a representation of mom!  I did good when I gave that too her too!  I am so proud of me for being able to express my emotions - not stuffing them - but at the same time - not going over board!
 
I am patting myself on the back as soon as I get through typing this!  I have been since yesterday too.  My son even commented on it - "mom you did great"!
