Thank you, Trent. I really needed to hear all of that. I am spending too much time worrying about how he thinks and feels.

I'm going to stop feeling badly that he left. That is his problem, not mine. In fact, I just told two of my friends, and I didn't even feel sad as I spoke the words. Not one tear came to my eye. Yay!

I guess I need to focus on my kids and forget about him.
