Coffee and a long talk started the day. I listened and cried. Fred talked. I had made up my mind I was leaving and wanted to choose the right words before I let him know my plans He said he was sorry again and this time I believe he was sincere. I believe he was sorry. I believe he wants me to stay in here with him and I truly believe he loves me. I asked him to promise me he would never say that to me again and he paused and said he didn’t think he could promise me that, just like he couldn’t promise me he would never take another drink again. So...I asked him to promise me if he ever said that again to me he would buy Stasia and I a ticket home that day from the nearest airport and that he did promise. As a Christian, it is my place to forgive him. He deserves to be forgiven, but I also know that I am not obligated to stay here with him if it happens again. I know I have made my fair shares of mistakes in my life and prayer gets me through them. Some more prayers than others. So, this morning, I will start off with my personal time with God and go on with this day, hoping it will be a good one. I plan to reflect on the wonderful times I shared with my son Phillip as I celebrate his 11 years of life with him. No wonder I have been down. Today is the anniversary of his eternal life with the Lord!
