This was my first Thanksgiving since the divorce (3.5 months ago) and my first long stretch with my two kids (9 and 12). I was concerned that I might somehow mess it up.

I didn't. We visited my family. We had a fantastic time. The kids are happy. I am happy.

My daughter told me that her mom's new boyfriend (her AP) is okay but she doesn't want him around because I am better. It's no big win, but it's little things like this that make me think things will be okay.

Wherever you are in the process, I hope you had a fantastic Thanksgiving and that the remainder of your year is everything you hope it could be.

Cheers
