The Love of my Life

This morning as I sat feeding Jenica her breakfast, it dawned on me how much I truly LOVE my life. I love being a mom and I love being able to stay home with Jenica and try to give her the upbringing that God wants for His children. And then another realization....I wouldn't have this wonderful life that I love so with out my adoring husband. Rob, thank you so much for all you do for our family. Thank you for getting up early every morning and going to work so that our family can be supported. Thank you for loving me and loving Jenica with all your heart. Thank you for being such an involved father and husband, for showing such an interest in our lives and being willing to be a stay at home dad for a few evenings a week so I can still pursue my career. You are everything I ever dreamed of and more and this Valentine's Day, I just wanted to say thank you for all that you are and all that you do. I love you!

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
