Kat, thank you for this beautiful story, I know there is hope in my situation, just strange part of my life, something I never expected or wanted, but now I have to deal with it.

I sent my W some scheduling updates (kids stuff going on) and here is part of her reply: Thanks for the updates, I really appreciate everything you do, you are a wonderful parent. You do what I just am not good at. I wish I could have been better. I try. I really do. I love them all so much and I want the very best for them always

W has the kids today, when she was talking about what she wanted to do one thing she said was to bring the kids back to my house and work on the christmas tree, I said thank you but no thanks. I was looking forward to just being by myself for the day.

Its quite around here, I have a lot of work to do, that will keep me busy and I know the day is going to fly by, W is going to bring the kids back at 9am tomorrow so I can take them to church, this appears to be the last day in December she will have the kids. so far in the last 3 months she hasn't had them more than 2 days for any given month. I'm both glad and sad, I want the kids with me as much as possible but they don't get to much mommy time

Merry Christmas everyone
