Sydne

I am so sorry you are going through all these mixed emotions. My father committed suicide when I was younger and my heart goes out to you.

Thank you so much for starting this chat. As a single mom to a toddler, I have majorly mixed feelings about Mother’s Day. I know I’m lucky to have this incredible little human in my life. But I do feel lonely without having someone to share him with… and on top of that, my ex took him away this week for the first time ever. All I can say is thank goodness for dogs. My dogs have been majorly helping me feel that unconditional love. So if Mother’s Day is hard for you for whatever reason, I’m sending a lot of love to you! I also wrote about it in my Substack this week if you want to read more about how I handled the lonely I feel like we all get as moms from time to time: https://sydnesummer.substack.com/p/thoughts-about-mothers-day-mini-indulgences
