Sad. . .

How do you tell your little ones that mom and dad aren’t going to live together anymore? I was younger than he is now, about his sister’s age, so I don’t remember what my mom told me. Luckily, their mom was. Maybe she recalls the conversation and knows exactly what to say. Perhaps she comforts herself with the knowledge that we turned out okay, so they will do the same. I can only hope that she knows what she is doing, and that those children have the constitution to fight through this, and understand, without hatred, frustration and regret, that sometimes, life is just destined to repeat itself.
