SWM

Life inevitably changes when one divorces a spouse. At the very least, you must become accustomed to spending time alone with yourself...in the lonely silences. If you are fortunate enough to have children to accompany you on the journey, you have  the joy of humor and conversation with other humans. You also have love and affection still present in your home.

Daily existence as a single working mother is hectic. The chaos of our days includes school, practices, play dates, daycare, dinners hastily thrown together, and sweet bedtime stories. Without the smiles, the hugs, and the words of kindness, these days would be unbearable. These kids simply make life still worth living.
