Things I learn and keep learning are- even though days where you feel all alone and do not think anyone else knows what you are going through - well you aren't alone in feeling this way- how do I know I have been there many of times- how do I work through those times well for one thing I do I pray and I ask God to help give me strength to renew me. sometimes ( i need to do it more) i ask for help - please have someone watch your child even if for a couple hours you would be amazed how it replenishes you- when they are settled for the night- take a long bath and enjoy the moment of quiet- for you single dads go workout if you are not into the bath thing-read an inspirational and encouraging book right now I am reading an awesome one titled "You were born for this" by Bruce Wilkinson, take a walk with your child check out what you see- if you are able to a bike ride and point out things you see with your child-
take time for you over the years I have learned I need this- recently my dad took my son for a week and it was very nice- i was able to get things done and sleep - sleep a lot - a few years ago I do not think I was able to do that and feel comfortable but we enlisted help and my son is doing well- that is another post-
so if you are single know you are not alone and you can do this and you do make a difference in your child's life- hang in there you are doing amazing!
