yesterday
things went well at the fair yesterday. the kids both had a great time although kieran became a little shit towards the end when he was ready to go and bailey still wanted to ride a few more rides. it wasn't, however, what i expected. i had braced myself for a day of memories flooding back, of pretending things were the way they once were. this wasn't the case. i simply enjoyed the day and had a wonderful time watching my children have fun. missy and i got along fine, had some nice (but brief, bear in mind we were chasing after two kids the whole time) conversation, and were simply there for the kids. i've spent the last year mourning the loss of my marriage and i think i'm finally ready to say goodbye to it. it was a great run, the best years of my life, but it's over and that's ok. nothing lasts forever. i hope missy and i can continue to do things together with the kiddies from time to time. i think they enjoyed having both mommy and daddy there at the same time. i do wish i could see them more, but i suppose every weekend is a hell of a lot more time than some dads get, so i should be thankful. that being said, it's only monday and saturday morning seems a lifetime away. but the week will pass and before you know it, i'll have them again and life will be grand.

I'm glad you had such a nice day at the fair. It sounds like a metaphor, only it's true, doesn't it. It's good for all of you to be able to spend time positively, and a testament to you and Missy that you can, after all that's happened.
I, too, am glad to hear that you all had a good day together at the fair. :-)
