Hello Everyone,
Again, I would like to start off on a personal note. Monday night’s Project Ladybug fundraiser was unbelievable success. Thank you for all your well wishes and support! It’s hard to address this episode on the positive high…
Episode 4
Ugghhh…this episode was a doozy. I watched it with my jaw dropped to the ground. Let me begin with the “lighter” parts of the show...
I know that I am an overprotective mom, I always joke and say, "Lexi is my only child, I don’t have a spare." LOL. I was a wreck with her going out of the country without me. God, I am a wreck when she goes down the shore without me, and now this? I am happy to report that she made it home without any crazy disease or married to a foreign 21-year-old. I hope the comments I made didn’t offend anyone, I just couldn't forget the looks I got from all of the Greek men when I went to Greece as a young woman…and I was on my honeymoon! I know that those men are looking for pretty American women to have on their arms and they are not shy about it. Those Greeks are known to be lovers…

Dina, I am a big fan of you and have always seen the things you do are always to help others. I hope that your life can be stress free with Danielle drama and any other drama that may come your way.

Dina, I LOVE Grandma Wrinkles. What type of cat is she and where can I get one? Sometimes I wish I had hairless dogs. When you gave her a bath I almost cried at how sweet she is. I used to own pot belly pigs. No one could understand how I could own such an "ugly animal". To me they are the cutest things alive so I understand a bit. Also, I completely understand your love for the little piggies too.

hey im 19 year old girl from uk and i want to say I LOVE GRANDMA wrinkles. she is the cutest cat and when you gave her a bath it melted my heart. she is lovely.
reminded me of my own cat who is like a baby and clings to me too.grandma is amazing and also your kindness and forgiveness to danielle was beautiful, but i would suggest not to be friends with her, just to leave all that negative engery and be beautiful liek you are.

Hi Dina.. I dont blame you one little bit for being parronoyed about Lexi's trip.. I am 22 years old and Ive been to Greece twice, men over there are(not all of them)do give off the dirt ball vibe. I think your relationship with her is so fun to watch, she's hilarious.

Dina,
I love your cats, I have 2 of my own! I think Danielle was very uncouth for bringing that book to the restaurant in the first place, in my opinion she is phony and clingy you on the other hand are down to business no nonsense and real, I applaud you for those characteristics.

I am so glad that you finally decided to take the high road and offer on olive branch to Danielle.
I think initially you may have been jealous of Danielle because she is a former model and actress and perhaps you were afraid she might take some attention away from you. It appears you may be maturing.
Lexi is adorable and appears well adjusted.
You are fortunate to have a large and close family. It is unfair and mean not to want family members to have new friends outside your circle. Danielle never had a chance with you and Caroline, book or no book.
I hope you and your family can show some compassion to Danielle. She is obviously very lonely and could use a friend or two.
Best of luck to you in the future!

Dina-
You and your sister are my favorites from this season of the Real Housewives, you are one awesome woman! I really admire you, and I love your sense of humor. You are also a fantastic mother, keep of the great work, Lexi seems like a great, smart kid:)

I absolutely adore the relationship you and Lexi have! Lexi is such a funny, happy, well adjusted young lady and I just love how you two make each other laugh. There is obviously so much love between you two. I am a young mother to my beautiful four year, and I sincerely hope that when he is as old as Lexi is, that he loves me as much as she loves you!!
I think your (and Carolyn and Teresa) family values are worth looking up to!! I usually don't get into reality shows, but even with the drama, I just love seeing how you ladies treat your families. I think it is a subplot of the show that really deserves more attention!!
ok, sorry to sound like a booty kisser!! I wish you all the very best!

What I am sad about is not so much the dinner episode but how it led up to it when especially you, Caroline, and Teresa laughed and made fun of Danielle in different episodes. Dina, you were having a good time laughing in one episode and said, "I think that is called prostituion." You could tell that you three enjoyed every minute of it instead of being MORTIFIED, but when it caught up with you it was different, and the tears flowed because you didn't like the stories being told about you in the blogs, media, etc. I pray for all of you and your families.
