Silence
These three are with their Dad today. It has been almost a year since they have seen him and needless to say, they were VERY EXCITED when he actually came to town. I hope it is a good visit. I hope they have a wonderful weekend, make some good memories and try and catch up on the past year. Divorce is so hard on kids. Even when it feels like I have created a routine and things are stable and predictable for them, it is difficult to know what they are feeling inside.
The house is screaming with silence today. I read a book. I watched the new Sense and Sensibility for the tenth time while eating breakfast and editing photos and answering emails. Now I am going to tackle the mess that s my bedroom. I am grateful for the alone time, but hardly know what to do with myself when they are gone. It is no longer our normal.
Stac, they are so adorable. You have done such a great job with them. Honestly! God bless the single moms out there. My sister is also a single mom. I look up to you all!
ReplyDeleteHow great that they are happy to see him too. It would be so nice to be able to have that heart of a child. I hope it's a really loving and happy day spent together.
