How old are your daughters? I know when I was 17 my mom decided to divorce my Dad. It tore our whole lives apart (in my eyes) and I HATED my mom for it. My Dad was AWWEESSOOMMMEEEE! LOL (again - in my eyes) As a 17 year old child, I was so mad at my mom for tearing my family apart. As a 34 year old WOMAN, I understand exactly why my mom did what she had to do and why she did it. Now my mom lives far away but I make sure to always remember her on mother's day and her birthday and send gifts in the mail, but there were many years I was a young, angry girl who never realized how much my mom sacrificed for me. (and I didn't even need to have kids of my own to realize this) (((HUGS))) they will come around!
