A little glimpse of my world :)


Just thought I'd give you an idea of what things look like these days for me. With only a week left until my due date, this tummy of mine is pretty big. My doctors appointments have all gone well and although there's still no indication of an early arrival, there has been progress that will hopefully lead to an easier labor and delivery when the time does come. Overall, I'm still feeling pretty good. Most nights, I sleep well and am trying to enjoy these last days/weeks of uninterrupted sleep. The weather has been great here, not too hot, and I've been able to spend time relaxing in our backyard, and of course getting last minute preparations ready around the house. My sister-in-law Amy came over on Wednesday and helped me give Kylo a bath, so even he is ready for this new little one's arrival.

I wondered when you would post this kind of picture after I saw your foot & hand pic a few days ago on the blog sight. We're counting the days now and listening for the phone call to come to the hospital. Held a 5 week old baby last night at a friends house. It was like a preview of what is coming for this grandma and grandpa.

How we got here…

Some of you have noticed that we moved. Some of you know that I bought a house. Some of you know I bought the house with my kids’ dad, my “wasband” of 5 years. Yup, you read that right! Me and the ex-husband purchased a home together. No, we are not getting back together. We have totally separate living spaces and it’s been so wonderful for the kids. Here’s how it started back in December. This is a page from my journal that I was looking back on.  It was my personal writing to myself that I feel led to share, so please be kind. The holidays are definitely a challenging time for me. Broken families, childhood, trauma, anniversaries of loss, along with the cold weather, short days, and little sunlight here in the PNW… It definitely challenges my mental health.  This will be my first winter without antidepressants in quite a while. I think I might have done one of the Mexico winters without pharmaceuticals, but other than that it’s been at least 11 or 12 years since I’ve been anti-depres

(I wrote this a month ago, but I’m just now finally brave enough to share it here. If you comment, please be kind.) I’ve probably taken 25 flights over the last year or so, and every time up until now I’ve thought that things would be better if the plane I was on just crashed, and I died, and Rob could collect the insurance money and hire a nice nanny to care for the kids and I could just go to heaven and be with Jesus instead of having to go through all the pain and hurt that comes with getting divorced. I know that this is completely selfish of me, and I would have never done anything to intentionally end my own life and leave my kids without a mother, but I honestly felt that death was the only way out of the situation I was in. I was not strong enough to leave my marriage, but it had become quite apparent that I was not strong enough to stay either.  Today I took off on an airplane, on one last solo trip before I become a single mom, and for the first time in over a year, I didn’t
