Missing him

[mumslilmonkey]

~Ok. So i am a single mommy to a 2 year old baby girl. She is my life, my smile, my hope and my joy. I honestly dont know were i would be if it wasnt for her. She keeps me going. Her daddy decided that he wanted to be in the military when he graduated from high school. One day i got a call on my phone while i was feeding Emmaleigha and a man told me that my fiance had been hit by a roadside bomb. I was devistated. And still am today. Sometimes it makes it hard because Emmaleigha looks just like him on somedays, but then again it makes me smile because i can still see his face through her. I know that he is watching over us and protecting us but it makes it hard when your LO says, "mommy, where's daddy". It makes me cry. I just wish he was here with us and to see his lil monkey grown up.

* Have any of you lost your OH in the service. And if so how did you cope with telling your LO?

Thanks

Havent been through that situation but i have lost someone i was dating to murder. He had a 6 yo son and his mother and i were good friends. Odd i know but we all got along. I remember how hard it was for everyone to accept but the odd thing was his son was the strongest out of us all. He would tell me everythings ok. I think he had his aura if that makes sense. There would be times I just saw his father in him.

Anyways, his sons mom went and seeked group therapy and we even had a memorial. But going to church seemed to have helped her the most. I dnt know exactly what its like to have to tell my child his father is gone but i do remember the pain SHE went through and im sure thats very difficult for you too. Just be honest with your girl, but also talk about the good times. They worry about why mommys sad the most so try to not wallow in pain all day. It helps if your strong too. Youll do good momma.

Hugz.
