So it's a day later. I had some time to sleep on things.

It is obvious to me that she is still in a fog of confusion. Reality is starting to hit her in the backside, and it looks scary. The reality of her life, is that it will be tough. It won't be as good as it was with me.

She keeps bringing up the kids, as the reason, and not her.

I want to be a strong co-parent, and I want to find a way to be friends with the mother of my children. But it will talk a long time before I trust her. The divorce train has left the station it's full steam ahead. Not because I don't love her, but because I need to set legal boundaries to stop her from hurting me and the kids.
