This past month has been difficult. I'm hoping that by posting this blog, I will self medicate and start to feeling better. My husband and I are not together and are working our way toward a divorce. There was lying involved and I just don't feel that this is something to be taken lightly. My son has bounced back suprisingly well to all the turmoil in his life. His main concern in moving was that he would have to leave the Dojo(karate school) he was in to get a new one. We can all learn something by children's adaptablity! I find myself in a strange land. God's love is all around me and I feel it, This is just something that I've never had to navigate as a single mother before, it's kind of scarry. I've found that just being honest with my son is the best way to let him know what is going on. I don't want to sheild from live anymore...I've seen just how that can damage a relationship. Reality is my new motto. With God at the head of our new smaller family, reality doesn't seem so very scarry.
