The chain

Last week after my court date I made mention that I had 26 more days til my next day in court. My thoughts came out loud and one of them was that I should make a paper chain to tear a link off everyday, to get me through the next few weeks. I remember doing this in elementary school to count the days off til Christmas. Not that this court date is something of excitement for me, but I'm hoping it will bring me closer to the end of my divorce. So, the next day when I picked my mom up, I was so touched when she gave me a paper chain that she had made for me. It was made of perfect white rings and it put a huge smile on my face. My mom was my ride to court that day and she heard me say I wanted to have a paper chain. The kindergarten teacher that she is, kicked in and she went to work. She and my father have been a huge support for myself and my family. We would be lost without them. I thank them both for their unconditional love and support. And for the white paper chain. Tearing away...one link at a time.

faith patience and hope...all will be good in the end.
