Who knows what is just around the corner? Success is sometimes hiding right around the corner but we may never know unless we prevail. I guess you have to look at the big picture now.

I am sorry there has been a cycle of absent dads in your H's life. It is also generational for my family. How I wish I could end that cycle with my son. I want to raise a boy who will be a great father which means a great H first! I think we can but not having a man around can be very draining.
