Stay true to yourself and your beliefs, and show the kids you love them - not with things but with your attention, your time, and maybe even some space right now.


Hey mnt_dreams.

Thanks for checking in on me. It's been kind of a hard day and a half. The kiddos are having a hard time, and she thinks it's for reasons other than the separation/divorce. They are lashing out at me. It is hard not to take it personally. Maybe the situation does have a lot to do with it. I agree that 'actions speak louder than words'.

Thanks. Your insight on this is, I believe, right on.

Are you doing good today mnt_dreams?
