It Is With A Heavy Heart

I will no longer be blogging as of today. My husband has decided it would be best to leave me and his kids. So I must now pick up the pieces and figure out where to go from here. It has been a huge blessing to have met each and every single one of you and I appreciate each and every comment I have received. You all have been my best friends that I never had. Thank you to each and every one of you. I will miss you very much.

    Mary, I am so sorry to hear this. I too will be keeping you and your children in my thoughts and prayers. Maybe after the shock and surprise of all of this has settled you will again feel the need or want to share again with all your blog friends. You may need to vent and if you do please know that we are here for you. Hugs to you and your kids.

    Mary,
    I'm just sitting here in shock. I do not know a lot about your relationship with your hubby or anything so I don't know what you're thinking....like are you totally floored or could you see it coming? I am so very sorry and I cannot imagine what you are going through right now.

    We're here for you and if you need to just talk and vent, go right ahead. I'm sure there are others here that have been in your shoes that can support you and offer some advice if you still want to continue blogging....

    Lots and lots of hugs!

    Leslie

    OMG! I am so very sorry to hear this! I am sending you a big hug and will be praying for you and your children. Please know that if you eer need to talk to someone, we are here for you.
    Maybe in time, you will feel like coming back. I stopped blogging last year, when my Mama got so sick. And now my Daddy is terminal. But having this blog and visiting with all of you has been so good for me. I am hoping that you will be able to do that too eventually.
    During this sad & difficult time, you need to know that there are many who love and care for you. Let us give you support in any way we can.
    My email address is sugarmoonteddy@yahoo.com.

    We are here for you!
    Take care!

    Ahhhh Mary,
    You sound so like me about 14 years ago, the only thing I can say is God doesn't close one door without opening another...don't look at the closed one keep you eye on the other door:) I know it's hard right now to feel that way but looking back I can see where God worked his wonders in my life.

    I'll keep you still listed on my fav list because I know some day you will be back! I'll miss you alot because you always made me smile and laugh.
    Hugs Rondell

    There is no good time for something like this to happen...but how selfish of him to throw this at you and the kids before the holidays! At the same time, I have a feeling you will more than make up for his shortcomings, and once the shock is over and you adjust to your new life, you will again find a happiness you never knew. I will keep you and your children in my prayers. Come blog and vent anytime..I have you on my favorites and thinking the deep friendships you have come to know here, will help sustain the bad times ahead as well as the good. May god bless and sustain you in the weeks and months ahead. ((cindy))

    Mary I know you won't have time for blogging since it is an 'extra' in life. But keep in mind, you have built relationships and friendships with many women who could be a real strength and support to you during this time. It is awful what you 'know' you are facing, especially this time of year. But keep in mind, prayers of a good friend are a necessity...we all have an unusual bond through blogging but it is one of strength not silliness. Don't give up, and always remember we will pray, don't back away from what you know is right! I think you should keep your blog, you might need some encouraging words in the days ahead.
    Bless you, and I will pray...

    Mary, I was very saddened to do my almost daily visit to your blog and hear of the heartache you're experiencing. I will be praying for you, that the Lord will lift you up and carry you through this. I pray for restoration and healing in your marriage and a change of heart for your husband. These are hard enough days we're in, which probably doesn't help the situation any. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Keep looking up, I know it's hard. Lord bless you, Karen
