Bruised Psyche


I was sad. A very long week. My teen aged son cuddled me while I cried, and my preteen daughter danced to make me smile. It moved me deeply and I've never been prouder of them. It's not easy to see your mom cry, especially when you know she's not really telling you why. You just know you want her to feel happy and smile. They got me there. They always do. I was sad the next day too. But I was alone. It's amazing how much you can wish for a minute alone and then when you are, you're lonely. It didn't occur to me that when I filed for divorce I'd see my kids less.
