I gathered my courage and called my oldest daughter this morning. No answer, I left a VM.

"Hi, it's me. I think perhaps it's time for us to talk. I deeply regret the words I said, and I love you."

Unfortunately I was unable to keep my emotions in check and my voice was very shaky.

I called my second oldest to tell her what I had done and she gasped, "You did that?" I said "yes." She then told me they had gone to dinner just last night and she asked my oldest what she would do if I contacted her. She said her response was as long as I did not bring up the past (which I would not) she would be happy to hear from me and my youngest daughter as well. I was absolutely stunned by that coincidence and so was she.

I guess it was time. Almost four years.

It is not over, however. Now I have to hope I don't lose my third daughter.
