To my beautiful children jjbswest: I Love you. You are the best things that has ever happened or will ever happen to me. No matter what happens, your father and I will always love you even if we don't always love each other. I hope for my son, that I raise you to be a respectable man who shows love, respect , compassion and honesty to your wife. I hope that I can instill in you the fact that to make sure she is who you want to spend the rest of your life with before you commit to a marriage. To my daughter, I hope that you will never see tears that I have seen. I know that I cannot stop heartache, but I hope that when you trust someone with all of your heart that they will feel the same for you. I hope neither of you feels the heartache that I feel today. I hope neither of you gets betrayed by the love of your life. I hope neither of you betrays someone who loves you. I hope that you don't grow up with trust issues because of what your dad and I are going through. I hope that whatever happens in your lives, you will know that mom has been there, will be there and loves you with all of her heart. Because the great love that I feel for your father does not compare to the love I feel for you two. I love you and hope that I can be a wonderful mother and maybe meet someone eventually who could be a wonderful stepfather to you.
Always remember: When no one else in the world does, your mother loves you with all of her heart and will move heaven and earth to protect you.
Love
Mom
Re:To my beautiful children favoriteangel2003: Mom~
They are going to be more than alright with a mother like you! More than alright! Just keep on loving them like that and you will never go wrong. :)
I love these kinds of heartfelt posts!!! I wish the same for my children too. If mommy is happy ...everything will fall into place. ;)
Good luck to you!

Re:To my beautiful children jjbswest: Thank you. I can't express the gratitude that I have at what you said in response to my post. And what you said about mommy being happy.... opened my eyes to the fact that I need to be alright for my children.
Re:To my beautiful children bloke: I really felt your letter. I think I could say exactly the same to my kids as a father that you said as a mother. I wish my wife felt the same way, but she loves herself more than she loves any of us.
I would do anything to protect them from what is happening to my marriage, they don't deserve it, but all we can do is love them with all of our hearts and try to help them to be better people than our partners have turned out to be.

Re:To my beautiful children bella: Gosh you so put into words what I feel about my kids. I really worry about their future and pray that they manage to get through all of this and find love and good partners in the future, how all of this is going to effect them still scares me and as their dad has now very limited contact with them( his choice )I try and give them even more love but I do feel their pain and their longing to have a father to be there for them. Sometimes I cry because I wish they didnt have to go through all this suffering. Thats why I want to reach my goal loving myself enough to help them love themselves too.
