Happy 6 Months!

I can't believe my happy handsome little man is already 6 months old! He steals my heart more and more every day and I can't imagine our family without him! He continues to bless me with his charming personality and adorable smiles, and the only time he really gets upset is when he's hungry. Let me tell you... this boy can EAT! He started solids a few weeks ago and absolutely loves it. So far there hasn't really been anything he doesn't like, although peas are his favorite and he hasn't seemed as into the sweet stuff as I thought he would be. He started rolling over consistently about a month ago and loves to have tummy time, especially when big sisters are there to entertain him with toys. He also loves to bounce in his jumper and can entertain himself for quite some time. He's in the 95th percentile for length, which means he pretty much outgrew his carrier car seat already, which is fine with me because he's almost to heavy for me to carry when he's in that thing anyway. This weekend we get to take a road trip to Idaho to visit Grandpa Ken - our fist long car ride with 3 little ones! Pray for us! lol

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
