The D Word

I've been quiet lately. Mostly because I don't know what to say. When I look back at my posts from the last six months, I see myself trying really hard to find a reason to be happy. And that makes me sad.


I'm getting divorced. 


Life has been sad and scary and frustrating and confusing and infuriating and lonely and exhausting and dark. 


But there has also been light. I have two boys who give me a reason to get out of bed. Who make me smile and giggle and dance. And I could never have imagined feeling so much love and support from my family and friends (both in real life and online). 


I have also been blown away by the number of stories I have heard of women going through similar situations. There are no words to describe how comforting it is to know that I am not "alone". And then that makes me sad. 


That's why I'm sharing this.  Because I completely understand how vital it is for moms to have community in all kinds of weather. Thank you for sticking by me, and please bear with me as I figure out my new direction.

Our family <3
