Snodderly, thank you so much for constantly reminding me of that. At times I'm still too weak and I believe it when he tells me that this is all my fault. If I had worked he wouldn't have left. That hurts my soul. To think that my kids don't have a dad because of me. I know he believes that. He refuses to believe any other story. But, really, if that were the case then he would be fighting for at least partial custody of the boys. Sadly, he's not asking for time with the boys at all. He'll offer to do things with them, but for short amounts of time and only when it works for him. This is the part of MLC that is so painful.
