The Answer

I admit, I thought doing everything on my own would be more difficult.  My children reminded me that even before the change I did everything I'm doing now; cooking dinner, taking kids to school, going to games, getting them hair cuts, homework, grocery shopping, working a full time job, etc.  So, what was I afraid of? 

The answer:  being and feeling alone. 

From the moment I made the decision to make a change my friends have rallied beside me.  From check in text to not letting me hide out, they have made sure that I knew I am loved and certainly not alone. 

You see....I am not that girl that needs everyone to agree with what I'm doing.   They don't live in my home, they do not sleep in my bed and they surely don't pay my bills.  I take ownership of my choices.  I can support those decisions when my children ask me.  I regret nothing.

I go home after work to my three children that get along better than they have in months, that laugh together and tell each other they love the other (yes, out loud). 

Don't get me wrong...my children are feeling the effects from this change but they have built stronger relationships with each other through it all. 

The best part?  I get even more one on one time with each of them.  I cherish every moments.  I may squirm a little because all three of my kids tell me EVERYTHING, but I wouldn't give it up for anything.
