Another Life Change

It's been a long while since I've posted. Much has been going on and my life has taken a left turn onto a new road.

It has been an adjustment with the arrival of our new Cub into our life and unfortunately, it hasn't always been easy. In fact, it's been rough. Only those closest to me know how rough it has really been for me - I've struggled with my own emotional and mental issues becoming a new mom and finding balance with my new role.

So it is with sadness and acceptance, that I finally put it down in writing that my life as a wife to my Pappa Bear is over. It involved a mutual discussion, a struggle with the acceptance that I have once again failed to make a marriage work - and then determination to move forward and start putting one foot in front of the other to start a new life.

It has been quite an adjustment for everyone involved, including my little Bear Cub. It's been five months since the decision and four since we have been physically separated. I've noticed quite a change in Cubby - he's becoming more of the happy-go-lucky kid that I've known he always was, and it's been a learning experience for both of us.

This is something I've never envisioned for my life, for our little family of three - but this is how life sometimes shakes out. One thing I've learned from becoming a Mom, you have to be flexible, learn to adapt and keep moving forward.

Here's to a new life!
