I know talk is cheap and as much as I want a fairy tale ending, I know if there is a happily ever after for me, it is not going to be with him.
I told my son about moving, I said how much his dad and I love him and how we would always love him no matter what just sometimes moms & dads need to live in different houses. I think he took the news pretty well, he even seems a little excited about having a new room. He only cried when I told him the dog wouldn't live with us and he keeps reminding me how much he'll miss the dog. It's so sad and I think it says a lot about my husband if his son cries over the dog, but doesn't cry about moving away from his dad.
I'm still looking for a preschool, but we should be moving into the apartment before the end of October.
ps - my tattoo hurts a little bit... ;) I figured since the husband won't be seeing me naked ever again I might as well go ahead with it. The feather is simple, no color and I love it. I'll post pictures as soon as it heals a little more, all the redness makes it kind of gross for now.

Yeah for you! You just did 2 HUGE things for YOURSELF! Keep it coming.
So I just read the backlog that you have available. I feel like I'm still missing out on huge chunks of important things in your life but I think I can piece things together from what I remember about your old posts and what I've just read.
I'm glad you go the tattoo. The hurt feels a little good though, doesn't it. It's saying, "Hi I'm here now! Don't forget!"
You are incredibly brave and one of my personal heroes. Remember that.
I can't wait to see pictures.
<3

Word. If there's one thing I know for certain in my nearly 5yrs in a kindergarden classroom, it's that kids are ok so long as their parents really take the time to do what's best for them. And if he's been stressed out because of the tension between parents, the relief of not having to be stuck in the middle is probably so worth the extra things you will have to juggle.
Bon chance, lady.
i'm so thrilled for you.
i left my husband in april and my sons are 3.5 and 5.5 years old.
they were sad, they cried for daddy at night at the beginning, we have 50/50 custody and they soon got used to it.
once you are free of a toxic relationship, you won't know yourself. in a few months, you'll wonder how you stayed for so long.
you just need to love your son extra hard, and cut him some slack when he is naughty for a while.
at the risk of sounding like a condescending old tart, i'm so proud of you kelly. you are young, and it's scary.
be true to yourself always. xxx
