moving on...


Thanks to each and every one of you for all your support and advice. I started this blog last year as a place to jot down memories of my final year being an at-home mom, little did I know it would also be my last year of being a wife. Now it's best if I stop talking about this, last thing I need is for my happy little corner to turn into a divorce blog. :)
Tomorrow the children and I will be flying to Pennsylvania. We have plenty loved ones there ready to embrace us and offer us love and support in every way.
Today we say our goodbyes. And I just don't know how. How do you say goodbye to your favorite person in the world? How do you say goodbye to family? How do you pack away a lifetime of dreams, love and commitment in one single day?
Am I making any sense? yes? no? I better go, see you back here in a few days.

You are such a artistic and poignant blogger, Shello. Please keep doing it. I would truely miss seagrape at blogspot if it were to stop!

Tragedy comes into our lives for many reasons...but the worst kind of tragedy is that random kind that no amount of thinking can explain. "Moving on" is the only way to cope with unexplainable loss. My heart is with you, your kids, and your family. "Move on" and complete your mission of helping your kids be healthy and happy.

Even though I moved away a year ago I still feel today as if I'm loosing my family all over again.

Be safe, heal your heart, and go find happiness.

Everythign James says, I say again. And one more thing: If this needs to be a "divorce blog" for a while, let it go there. We'll hang out with you, wherever you want to go.

You're right to move on. Things happen in life for a reason and one day, you'll look back and find peace and how everything makes sense. What's important now is to find comfort in your loved ones and life will fall into place in time.

I love your blog. My friends and kids love it too. You must continue blogging. Vent if you have to. That's the only way to release. You'll find alot of mixed emotions in the months ahead. I wish you all a safe journey.

Sometimes life takes a totally unexpected path. It can hurt like hell at the time and nothing seems to make sense. But by being with your family, people who love you and will comfort you, you'll become stronger and rebuild your life. Negatives can turn into positives.

Your blog is one of my favourites, and your photographs and outlook on life, with your adorable children, has given me so much pleasure. But as other people have said, if you need to blog vent, you go girl! We're all rooting for you.

Time will heal everything. You'll have a happy ending too :-)

Write out whatever you feel in this little universe of blogging. It helps you know.

My heart truly breaks at your pain. Don't keep it bottled in you. If it isn't too painful, dump it here. If it becomes a divorce blog, so be it. It won't stay that way. And we'll be here to offer a willing ear.

I am glad you are flying to the bosom of family. That will smooth the rough spots for now...or at least pass the tissues or glass of wine.

I'm just catching up on my blog reading and I know it's late to comment on this post, but I wanted to say something. This must be so difficult for you and I feel the sadness in your voice. I hope some sort of normal appears for you soon. Please take care of yourself.
