Dear Children, the first part of your week you did so well, the end was just heartache. I'm so sorry.
Dear Moving, we did it, with lots of help. But somehow it's never ending because now I have to unpack. And we tend to move every year. Hopefully that won't be happening unless it's to a way nicer place for the same price.
Dear Dad, thank you so much for supporting me and helping me move and fix up the house and working like crazy for me and for calling to check up on me. I love You!
Dear B, thank you too for sacrificing your day off to help me, it means a lot to me. You have such a good heart.
Dear Neighbor, we didn't exactly meet in the best way. Me shuffling out of my bedroom in my jammies barely being able to stand up, my kids looking homeless. Thank you for bringing us dinner and offering to watch my kids ten minutes after meeting us. I am a little too protective for that but it was so thoughtful to offer.
Dear Miners, you are the best friends a gal could have. Bringing us dinner, watching my kids, saving me when my battery died, this was no small task. Hopefully you won't regret suggesting I move down the street from you.
Dear Back, I should have known you would be thrown out during the move. I hate being that helpless, not being able to force yourself to stand up straight is very irritating.
Dear Bath Tub, I have been taking a hot bath every night I am in Mesa and enjoying every minute of it after ice showers
. Dear Brother, it was great to see you and your kids, they grow so fast. You should visit more often.
Dear Long Lost Cousins, it was fun to see you and talk with you. But I must say it isn't fair that none of you ever seem to age!
Dear Peggy, I loved visiting with you. You are proof that people can truly love each other in this world. You are in my prayers.
Dear Kade, you are now my 9yr old boy! You had a great birthday and a great party. I love you! Happy Birthday Little Man!
Dear SunSplash, spending the day there was actually really fun.
Dear Week, now that you are over we are headed back to our little roach shack, cold showers and no internet. We will see what surprises are awaiting us when we get home.
Dear Ric, it's been four long months since you've seen the kids, they were so happy to be with you. Every single one of us cried ourselves to sleep when you left. Standing in the rain with our daughter crying as we watched you drive away is one of the worst feelings and memories ever.
Dear Self, living in the depths of sorrow is not where I want to be and I refuse to raise my children that way. I have spent so much time hoping and wishing that something would change and our family could be together, that there would be a change of heart a desire to be with us. It is a waste of time because you can't make some one want something they don't want. I will make a happy life for us even if I do have to do it alone.
