Friday Cocktails – August 19, 2022

Friday Cocktails - August 19, 2022

Friday has rolled around again, which means it is time for Friday Cocktails!  This week has been full of emotion and I can only imagine what next week will bring. We had our day in court and the new arrangement is I get them for the summer and two weeks during the holidays.

There isn’t much I can do about it. I argued as hard as I could but in the end I am not their biological mother and he is their biological father. I’m fighting a losing battle. I accepted the summers and holidays because at least this way I can still see them. He got remarried and I’m fighting an illness as well as caring for two senior citizens. The deck was stacked against me from the beginning. He also waited to file things until I was gone on vacation with them. I have a plan though and I am going to stay strong through all of this.

I took the twins to the pool several times this week. The older kids didn’t want to go so I packed some lunches and off we went. The had fun and I enjoying spending the time with my babies. I hate that things are going to be very different for them soon but they are all healthy and happy at the moment. What more could a mother ask for?
