Today, my baby turns 7 years old. It’s the first birthday he has had without me by his side. Since Michael will not even let me contact the kids, I do not know anything about how his special day has gone.
I spent $40 and had presents sent to Michael’s house for Evan. I don’t know if he’ll get them, or if they will tell him the gifts are from me. I don’t even know if he likes the things I picked out just for him.
Needless to say, it’s an emotional day for me. Lots of crying, lots of raging, lots of shaking my fists in the air. Divorce is hard, but when it gets this nasty it becomes pure hell.
Hug your babies tight for me today, and send happy birthday wishes through the air to my little man who is growing up far too fast.

Summer this sucks. I know what it feels like to go from knowing where your kids are every second of the day, to not having a clue about where or what they are doing. Hang in there, and hopefully sometime soon someone will convince your ex that he is hurting the kids more than he is hurting you by keeping all of you apart. Hugs to you and birthday wishes to your baby.

I am so sorry, Summer. I hope you are feeling much love between the rages. Will be praying that there will be a change of heart in your ex and that you will be able to be with your children soon!
Blessings!

I’m late in replying, but I want to say that I’m so sorry that you’re in this position. And I hope that it doesn’t last for too much longer.
I’m sending you lots and lots of good thoughts. Be well.
