For the first time since the end of our marriage my children are going away for 10 days, with my ex and her partner to France, and i will miss them.
So here I am at work when my mobile rings, and its my son calling me from Dover in the Queue for the Ferry, telling me “they are going” and at thhe end of the conversation, he tell sme he loves me and passes the phone to his sister who tells me she will miss me and loves me as well.
I try to do all the right things and think of them first. I am lucky in that we do not argue over them and try to comprimise where we can. I always think of the caucasian chalk circle story of teh two mothers laying claim to a baby and asked by the emporer to pull the child from the circle of child as the real mother will have the strength to pull the child out of the circle and away from the other woman… In fact the emperor gives the child to the woamn who lets go not wanting to hurt the child as only the real mother puts her childs wellbeing ahead of her own.
Perhaps i have not done enough of that
