It's been almost 9 months since it's just been us girls. I never thought the girls and I would ever laugh or smile again, but I think sometimes that's all that's left after the tears. I still can't believe that this is real. Sometimes I'm going through my day and get hit with the reality of what is now my life. A single mom, with two daughters and a dog. Not exactly what I had in plan, but I will make it work.
