Seven Months

Wow, where to even start. It’s been 7 months since I last posted on here. What a 7 months it’s been. My entire world has been rocked to its very core, flipped upside down, and felt at times as though it would shatter into a million little pieces, but you know what? I’m still standing. I’m different than I was before, 7 months ago, but I’m still here.

As to what was going on these past 7 months, I will say this, Ben and I are now divorced. It was by absolutely no means my choice for our family. It is not what I wanted; it’s not what I believe God had planned for us.

What I won’t say, is the he said, she said. These postings are not here for me to air out the sordid details of a painful heartbreak, but I would like to offer enough honesty that someone who may be going through a similar situation can relate and hopefully not feel quite as alone.

At the same time, my primary reason for even doing this was and still is, to record the precious day to day memories of our family. Our family looks a little different than it did 7 months ago, but you know what? We are still a family and there are plenty of memories to still be made.

So here we go….The (new) Days of the Dukes!
