So many people ask how I do it with divorce... How do I stay positive, friendly, etc... with everything I have went through? I guess that's just me... I work my best in a positive, friendly environment. ( In my own "Happy Keena World") So enjoy this tidbit from Anthony's birthday that makes my "Happy Keena World" all worth it...
I sent a text to the ex inviting he and his girlfriend out to dinner for Anthony's birthday. We also all went together to buy him an ipod touch (since the one I bought him at Christmas was stolen.) We enjoyed sushi and talked football, American Idol, sitcoms, and such.
When Anthony and I had a moment alone, he tells me "Mom, not many divorced parents would invite their ex to dinner, let alone their girlfriend... but you did. I just wanted to tell you thank you and that I really appreciate that you did that..."
As tears filled my eyes and my heart swelled with pride, I knew it was all worth it :)
You are SUCH a better person than I am...just remember to learn from Mom and take care of yourself too!! Hugs and love!!
