How are the kids holding out? Through the whole mess we remember the WAS feelings what they are saying what they are thinking who they are doing it with. We concentrate on you. Helping you cope with fear, sadness, blame, guilt who is doing these things for the kids?
I know you have done a great job at keeping them busy but when you are going at it solo with kids a lot of times people overlook the struggle that causes, specially to your emotions because you are limited as to when you can deal with your emotions. It's like you push everything aside for when the kids are not around.
Kids have a hard enough time without haveing to deal with all this craziness. What are you doing to handle their emotional needs?
About a month ago I got my D a journal. Told her it was just for her to write and release her emotions. Gotta say I think it was a great idea. She loves it.
What is your plan to make this a smooth as possible for them?
2step, plenty of good questions that I don't have all the answers to.
They seem to be doing well. I did notice my S5 needed more attention yesterday and wanted to be held. He fell asleep in my arms at the movies.
I try to give them each my equal time and just love on them as much as possible. I will admit, it is a lot of work. Some days I don't have the energy to deal with it all, but I push my way through.
After this week's wave off craziness passes, I will need to start looking at a plan on how to deal with their emotional needs from my sitch.
Thanks for the questions 2step. I needed them so I can think bigger picture.
