Divorce after Twenty years together Community Group
I want to start something for those of us that were married for a long long time. I think that we face a little different issues than those who were dating for a few years or even married for shorter period of time. Being married for so long we have older children some have grandkids dealing with teenagers and their reaction to the divorice empty nesters dating after 40...
Grandchildren warm and heal our hearts. My first was born very shortly after my separation. He is still a powerful source of pure pleasure and unconditional love, and is now accompanied by his two brothers, so this Nanny's heart nearly bursts some days.
I never imagined I'd be playing games at my age, playing dinosaurs around the kitchen island, or sliding down slippery slides, then snuggling up on the couch, two on the lap, reading a book (the little one's only about a foot long at this stage so I'll have to work on fitting three soon). Oh yeah. This is the life.
Welcome to the happy world of grandparenting, Nohappy:)
I have a beautiful little year old granddaughter who has brought her mother back into my life. She is such a joy and I can see what I missed with my children with the ex in my life. I no longer have that distraction and life is good.
This blessing that is coming into your life is coming at just the right time.

Big congrats to you!
