Regrets
Summary: Barbara Fish had a ton of regrets.
The day she'd walked in on her son with Kyle all of those years ago, she hadn't had the best response. She knows now that her behavior caused her son to deny who he was and deny himself happiness. All because she let her religion determine how she judged who her son loved. And she regretted it every single day, now. There was nothing wrong or dirty about Oliver and Kyle's relationship. If she hadn't been so blind, she'd have realized that years ago and saved her son and Kyle all of that pain.
In these last few years, she'd begun to see how pure their love was. She saw how much they loved their little girl, Sierra Rose, the apple of both of their eyes. She saw how much Kyle loved her little boy and that adorable child. She saw how much Sierra adored them both. She doesn't think she's ever seen a child happier than her granddaughter.
And to think, Oliver could've had this so much sooner if she'd just taken the time to sit and listen to her son. To realize his sexual and romantic preference didn't change the fact that he was a wonderful person. Maybe it was her husband's unwillingness to accept their child that led to the downfall of their relationship and their divorce. Sometimes she regretted that. She and George had been happy together once, especially when they'd had Oliver. But she didn't regret accepting her son and getting to know Kyle. She could never regret that. Perhaps eventually, George would come around and be a part of his son's life again and get to know his grandchild. She certainly hoped so.
