to pick up the phone and make the hardest call I’ve had to make in years.
I called my ex and I told him that it was not a matter of if w were going to move anymore, it was when.
And when I hung up, I cried. For I cannot imagine what it would feel like to have someone take my son several states away.
I cannot imagine at all.

I do not envy you…but wish you & LM all the best in your up-and-coming travels. May God grant you all peace 🙂

wow – thanks for this snapshot of perspective. What an incredibly difficult thing to have to do. I will keep you, LM and your ex in my prayers. (not that it matters, but I’ve named your ex Bruce — if I’m wrong, don’t say anything, it would really screw me up :)In completely unrelated news… I thought of you last night — I finally finished A Thousand Splendid Suns. Oh my did the tears run for what happened to Mariam. And her thoughts as she walked into the stadium were nothing short of gut-wrenching. I really wish that this novel would be made into a movie. And I was completely shocked that Tariq came back. Whew! I am still reeling.
