Probably the toughest day/night of my life yesterday. She finally moved out, the closet was empty, her side of the bathroom was empty. We had one final 'family' outing for a neighbors birthday that we all did together. The drive home was somber and silent (sir-real) for me. Collected her key and garage door opening hugged her good bye in the garage told her good luck and walked back inside without turning around.

The real tough part... the kids finally broke down for the first time last night. Asking all the questions and stating how they didn't like that mommy had to leave. I guess it was good they were with me, as it allowed me to focus on them and not her/me/emotions. But it was VERY HARD.

I'm sure I know the answer to this question but just in case... So, I do not say anything to her about what the kids said/asked and how they broke down - right? I'm assuming it won't change anything at all and it will just look like manipulation from my side.

Anyway - got to get my first day started in this new chapter..
