i could tell my kids loved that i was not drinking. i made a great dinner. and i was sober, so i could drive my daughter over to her friend's house and pick her up at 10pm... she was nervous to ask me and so thankful i could pick her up.

my other daughter curled up and we watched cupcake wars. she usually disappears to her room if i am drinking.

awesome to wake up clear-headed and ready for an awesome saturday. i know i will still have hard times ahead, but i am so thankful right now.

have a great weekend! on to day 7!
Just reading this and it made me cry! (It doesn’t take much today) but when you said your kids could see the difference it hit home! I hope you continue to grow and stay strong, and be the best mom you can be! “Just as the caterpillar thought its life was over, it became a beautiful butterfly” x
