Broken

We do this best/worst part of your day conversation every night, just to see what is going on. (Background: Ethan is with his dad today and tonight, just spoke with him on the phone.)
"Ethan, best part of your day?" "Seeing you at my basketball game!"
"Worst part of your day?" "Saying goodbye to you after my basketball game."
My heart just cracked, then fell on the floor, and then broke into 50 zillion pieces.
I used to practice family law, being on the other side of the fence is a whole different ball game.

Oh man. That's hard. But the good news is...he loves you so much that saying bye is hard.

Bittersweet... Prayers for your comfort and prayers of thanksgiving that you're raising him so beautifully.
