This has been my first weekend alone with the girls since Kenny and I have seperated. We have had a fun time! On Friday night we went swimming at the YMCA! The girls are little fishes and I even obliged Angelina and went down the blue slide! It was a lot of fun to hang out with them and just play. After that we came home and had movie night. We all sat together and had popcorn and watched "Babe". Today, after my hair appointment, the girls and I loaded up and went over to my brother and sister in laws house. My niece, Sierra was there, and the girls are always so excited to get to play with their cousin. They played outside on the equipement for several hours and had a ton of fun. We borrowed the movie "Flicka" from them and watched that together tonight. Natasha was so excited to get to see the movie, because on our trip to Europe, she read the book. I know the girls are struggling with this seperation and divorce, but I am hoping that by spending really quality time with them that we can pull through this. They miss their dad, and so do I. It is really wierd to not see him or talk to him everyday, but I guess this is something that we all have to get used to. I am assuming that it gets easier with each day that passes. I hope so, because right now it is hard. Tomorrow, we are heading to church as a family. This is something that has been missing from our lives for a very long time, and I am ready to incorporate it back. A little help from above would be wonderful right now, and I hope that God is listening. After church, I want to cook breakfast with the girls. I know their dad usually does that with them, but I want to give it a try also. We have to start doing some of this stuff together also. The girls seem to be ok. They are getting lots of help from their friends, teachers, and everyone who loves them. As for me, I talked to a friend the other day and he said that it is so important to talk it out. I am trying, and maybe this blog is my way of doing it. I am more of a writer than a talker. I can tell you one thing, life feels very strange right now at this point. I have so many questions about the future, and it is awkward to think of it without Kenny and I being married. After 16 years, you somehow are comfortable. I miss that comfort.
