I know this time of year can be lonely and hard so thought I would start a post sharing positive things about being a line parent. I'll start....
Despite my 6 year old DS being quite "challenging" this week,my heart swelled with pride that yesterday he came home with not 1 but 2 Christmas cards for me. I think he was told he could do 2 for each parent but he decided to do them both for me. Contact with ex is sporadic and whilst he does enjoy a good relationship with him,when he sees him,it's lovely to realise that at 6,he understands that I am his constant,that I am the one there through thick and thin,and that in my opinion,these two cards show his appreciation of this. And that's lovely.
