Thanksgiving

I think the timing of our seperation is pretty good. We both enjoy the holidays with our families, and its during these times that reinforce how important they are to us. Sure, it doesn't stop me from constantly thinking what the holidays would be like with Sara, but its more a happy feeling than a sad one. And I can't say enough (or is this the first time I'm actually saying it here) how much it helps to read all the blogs from the women who are put into the same situation as her. They do an excellent job of expressing all the emotions that (I'm certain) Sara is probably going through as well. And that helps me to realize and understand that my hope of her finding a compromise with us is unrealistic. So, its time to put aside (at least temporarily) those hopes and dreams of what could be, and just be thankful for whats there. Right in front of us.
