Although it's a completely different situation, I am grieving the failure of my marriage this holiday season, facing my first Christmas as a single mother, and trying my best to live in the moment. It's not normally the way I roll and it, too, makes me very uneasy. Thank you for being so honest and sharing your world--it helps to know I'm not alone. Sending all my best to you and Andy. xoxoHollihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16069832211463767586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32679432.post-18693538790072465112012-12-02T15:07:22.256-05:002012-12-02T15:07:22.256-05:00These images make me happy for you.
