My two oldest, ages 8 and 7, are away visiting their dad in Kansas. They called today to say happy father's day to the man who really loves them and takes care of them. I got to talk to them too which was really great but now I am missing them more than ever. I am so afraid that they are not going to want to come home in July. What if they want to stay? I want them to come home now, I have been trying really hard to be supportive of their trip, they don't really know their biological dad, and I don't want to be seen as the bad guy by trying to sabotage it. I don't want my ex to be able to say I did anything wrong. Tomorrow he is taking our son to the Dr's as he thinks hw has bronchitis and it would then be my fault. My son was coughing when he left town but I had the same cough and it was brought on by allergies, but what if he really is sick? I would feel absolutely horrible. I'm just really missing my kids and they won't be home for another 28 days. They have only been gone 1 week and I'm a mess, I need them here. I feel so insecure, my ex could be saying anything to them, I'm sure they are having more fun there as he is so immature and never grew up. He has the mentality of a teenager, that is why we split in the first place. I just keep trying to smile and be ok with them being gone but I feel like there is a big gaping whole in me that won't be healed until I have them in my arms again. Those are my babies and I want them to come home.

(((steph))) You are second guessing yourself way too much, imo. Try and give yourself the needed time off of taking care of them...do some fun things for yourself that you don't get too when they're around... Of course you want them to come home... that's part of the plan. TC of yourself!

steph, i'm sorry that you're so worried about your kids and yourself. it sounds like their dad is concerned and it's a good thing for him to take them to the doctor.
i seriously doubt that they won't want to come home when their visit is up. you're a good mom to them and they love their stepdad....i hope you're doing better now and will keep posting here with us. we'll listen....xoxox pat |

I am sorry you are so worried. It is only natural to miss your kids so much. You sound like a wonderful Mom. Hopefully the time will fly!

...................... a MOTHERS LOVE is some thing that can NEVER be replaced. YOU will miss then until they return to the safety of your eyes and heart, so know this and with it be content and pray that they receive some good bonding with their father while they are away - they will need that to be a balanced adult one day.
