They say divorce is worse than death. They say time heals all wounds. They say hindsight is 20/20. They say a lot of things, most I have found to be true. In the Summer of 2010 I was eight months pregnant, happily married, and had it all figured out. Then it all fell apart. I fell apart. They also say life goes on. It does, and it goes on with or without you. So this is me going on, moving on, and keeping on. Picking up the pieces of a broken heart and broken life and finding out how to put them back together.

Hope ya'll have a Merry Christmas!

Love,

April, Reese, and Carson

It's that time of year again...

Mmmm, Christmas time again. Not the easiest time of year to be a single mommy, but defintely not the worst either. Yes, I get emotional thinking about past Christmases with my ex. You might even say I miss him from time to time. Decorating the tree was difficult because he wasn't there to see the smile on Reese's face. Christmas parties are tough because he's not there to make everyone laugh. I am sure Christmas Eve will be hard because he won't be with me putting our kids' presents out...he will be with her putting her kids' presents out. Then almost immediately, I realize no he's not here and he won't be here, but I am. I will always be here. Every single Christmas morning I will see the excitement on their faces when they see what Santa brings. I will be here making sure Santa comes. I will enjoy those moments that I made possible. I will do everything in my power to make sure my children have memorable and meaningful holidays. I will come up with fun traditions for our new little family. I will have the honor of watching their eyes light up and the pleasure of knowing I did that. So, yeah, this time of year can bring to light some old sentimental feelings, but it can create some new ones too. :)
