I hadn't thought about it that way....


I wrote this sentence in this post below.

"I don't get to see Sadie before I go to work in the morning...so when I get home from work, we've been apart for 22 hours"

I hadn't put my daily separation from my daughter in those exact terms before. And it is staggeringly heartbreaking to me. Every time I think about it that way, which is all the time now, I feel like I'm being kicked in the stomach.

I have to tell you, I am finding your posts both heartbreaking and uplifting. You are a strong and wonderful mother! Sadie knows that and I know you do to. You are doing what's both right and necessary and for that I commend you! Hang in there.... life is good. And with you there, life is so much better!!!
