Journeying Forward

It has been a month since I've written anything to post on here. Life happens. I haven't had any revelations or inspiration. Life has been kinda like the pounding of a runner's feet on pavement, one foot in front of the other, just moving. Not even necessarily straining for anything.

I don't like calling myself a single mother. When I think "single mom" I don't think "divorced chick" with her kids half time. I am, I guess, half-time single and half-time mother. Although, I am fully single and always a mother.

Life has its challenges right now. The kids are all three going through hard phases. I think it is because they are dealing with Shane and I living in separate homes. The excitement has worn off and life is different for them this year. School is starting school and Carrera will be in kindergarten. I think she is excited, but that entails another change for her. Lots of changes for them.

Shane asked me yesterday if I am happy. I have to say, that despite the challenges I am facing, I am sincerely happy. I have all that I need, my three kids and health. I refuse to let life steel my joy.
