Busting, I’m happy and sad for you and your kids at the same time. I’m happy that you had a couple of weeks with the family and H and he was giving you and the kids all of his time. I’m sad that it ended. That your kids are hurt again by not being with their father full time. I’m hurt for you. I think that these two weeks had some downfall as well. It is like re-opening an old wound for you. I get it. I would feel the same and I would have a meltdown too.

Ruby posted some good questions. You do need to think how to make your life and your kids life better without H in it. I bet when he sees you happy and content and your kids doing great, he will want some of that life too. Hugs to you.
