You seem so strong in your reply to Estes. How do you do this. My boys spent the 1st night at their Dad's this weekend. I was a wreck! Any advice?<p>Cindy

Hi! I'm not daybreak, but the 1st night that the kids are away is difficult for everyone!<p>It takes alot of time, prayer and leaning on your support system(make sure you have one) to get through this.<p>Everyone also goes through highs and lows.<p>Advice for when the kids are gone is to do some things for yourself - take a bubble bath, go to the movies, go out with friends, do something to take your mind off of the situation. It will get easier, but it's ok to be a wreck for a while. We'd actually think you weren't normal if you weren't.<p>Hang in there, and continue to vent and let it all out here on this board! K
