Wife of neighbor and myself...her kids could do no wrong and always pitting their kids against ours. My wife and I would pray for them all the time.

Never looked at them with anger after that.   Break 2   Angela – I forgave the woman my husband had an affair with during my pregnancy   John - Incident between me and my son.
