2/4 of my babies? they're growing so fast. Ladies (and gents too I suppose!) think twice before divorcing.... no..... think like eight or nine x..... not just twice. It's soooooo hard to be away from your kids while they're with their other parent. If you can salvage your marriage--- DO IT. WORK IT OUT. AND WORK HARD!!!!! don't just give up. No throwing in the towel. No giving up. You don't get to give up. You have to keep trying for them. I know it's not healthy to "stay together for the kids sake" but you have to at least put in the effort for the kids sake. Learn from my mistakes!!!! If this could make just one person out there who wants to throw away their marriage turn around and give it some more thought, I'd be so happy. It's always worth trying. You don't want to regret your decisions four or five years later. Have to drop your kids off and say "bye! Love you! See you Monday!" And go home to an empty house. It's no fun. I don't go out and have fun when I don't have them. I come home from work and clean my house. And when there's nothing left to clean I dive into my pile of paperwork and bills and start the next task. There's no freedom in that. It's lonely at times, sad at times, and quiet. I would take going out and doing something as a family over the ability to have two days of cleaning and maybe once and a great while going to get my nails done or something like that any day of the week. Soooooo with that being said... I'm off to clean before going to work.... and then coming home to an empty house later tonight ☹️ #singlemom #divorce #family#learn#try#workhard#dontquit #love#parents #parenting#work#life#mom #mistakes #inspiration #instadaily #friday#foodforthought
