. Maybe this is a test. Maybe this will allow me to become stronger. I'm trying to see positive in everything. I don't want to be depressed anymore. I refuse to cow down to him.
I am very fortunate, to have my grandmother in my life I am the oldest grandchild in my mom's family, and my grandmother has always said that I came into her life, as she started menopause, small blessings in disguise!

I will say, there is something about bring a third child into one's life. Perspective really begins to change! I don't quite know how to articulate it, but it happened to me too. Raising 3 or more is life changing, to say the least. Symbolically, you no longer can hold all your children's hands at once You can sit two to a lap, but not three.

"maybe.' you say, 'this will allow [you] to become stronger." Oh Yes, it will!!
