The big question: Whatever happened? Well, here we go. God's grace and mercy is part of what happened. And, the result is I was able to make a payment towards the inevitable. Things remained quiet. And, later that week we discovered the why. My ex is no longer represented. And, though we have our suspicions we may never know the "why's" behind his being let go. But, this will mean that if he finds another one, that will be his 5th attorney in less than 4 years.
I can not explain accurately enough the level of relief that this news brought me. I don't know why but it was as if I exhaled for the first time in nearly 4 years. And, it felt good. In the big picture, it means nothing more at this point than we are in limbo but it's still a nice feeling not having a pending case hanging over my head.
Meanwhile, there are still other things going on. Some of those things are "in limbo" as well but it still remains hopeful that the truth is about to be revealed. I am hoping, praying, and waiting.
During the wait, I continue to press forward. Baseball season is amongst us for the first time and let me just tell you: You don't know busy until you know 'baseball busy'. Wow! Talk about a lot all of the sudden. We have been thoroughly enjoying it but it makes for tired kiddos and a tired Momma.
The business is still moving forward and although we remain at a snail's pace for before mentioned reasons, prayers are bringing about some potentially huge changes in that department in the near future. This is another opportunity on my end to practice faith when listening to those answers from God. Please pray that those answers will be revealed soon and that I will have the faith to pursue them accordingly.
Our school year is coming to an end and graduations, dance recitals, and the close of ball seasons are quickly approaching. I may not know what to do when summer finally hits! In it all, we are still trying to adapt to the changes that this business has brought into our lives. We are trying to cope with the change of time we spend and the ways we spend time together. It has been a big adjustment for all. But, God is in it! And, I can see it in many ways.
With all of this including my ex's current lack of representation it has not stopped him in any way from his demanding, demeaning, belligerent ways with me. In fact, he came real close to showing himself today in front of a crowd of peeps at the ballgame. It wasn't until he realized that he was in fact being watched that he caught himself and played it Mr. Joe Cool. One day, this will end. I am sure of it. I just hope and pray that it is a forced ending from authority long before my youngest is of legal age. I am so tired of 'having to endure it.'
The past month though has been welcomed with a relief that was much needed though and I know a large part of that comes from all of the many prayers from my warriors and God! I welcome this relief! I cherish it! And, I have been able to focus on other things as a result.
Please continue to pray for my kiddos. Pray that truth will indeed be revealed soon. Pray for the guidance of my business and it's success. And, pray for my strength in it all.
Thanks for being with me on this journey.

“Now may the Lord’s strength be displayed, just as you have declared.
