My mom is AWESOME.
she never tells me WHAT to do. I think having lived my life gives her insight that maybe other people (normies) don't have.
she really understands why I have not left him, why I have made the choices I have, even if she didn't agree with them all the time, she still supported that it was MY decision to make.
I talked w/ her this morning and she keeps saying she will back me no matter what. I believe that. I know she wants him out of my life, not because she doesn't care about him but because she loves me and wants what is best for me.
She tells me I'm strong, and I feel like I'm showing her she's right. I'm not a quivering crying mess anymore...I'm strong and have a plan of action. I'm being proactive. I'm not just going to take what he plans on giving...I'm taking what is rightfully mine, being fair but still doing what is the right thing for ME and my kids...I'm not letting his actions or drama rule my world anymore. I'm quite content w/ the knowledge that I will be okay.
Man...I am so blessed to have the mom I have.
