Well, had a great thanksgiving anyways, put up the tree, have lots of plans with my kiddies and just joined a group of single parents which organize lots of activities with kids and without, can't wait to go to our first meetup.

LO, I'm so glad for my brother, he is a good role model for my son, we go to his house every holiday and every other sunday, he loves my son to pieces and they get along great with my nephew the same age, thank God for our families.


This sounds wonderful!! You sound stronger, and having a plan to get S to a counselor (with or without his father) is the best thing. You have your son most of the time, right? That is how it is in my sitch, too, and all I can do is:
1. smile and wave
2. keep lines of communication open with my kids to vent
3. not put down my X
4. keep the kids in therapy (about 1 or 2 times a month)
5. be the best example of a loving parent during the times they are with me
