A Chapter Closes

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way”- Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities.

 

That about sums things up for us. We were in lovethat is for sure, and sporadically happy. We tried like hell to fit a square peg into a round hole and many times we were able to gain enough ground that we thought we could ride this thing forever. However, sadly, we could not. Rest assured that our love for each other remains in the respect we have for the other as the mother/father of our beloved children. We want to thank all of you for your support of both our marriage and our children over the years and for the prayers offered up for a miracle. We are not angry with one another and hope that none of you feel inclined to be angry either. However sad this is, it is what’s best for both of us and our children. We will both be ok and welcome support and well wishes on an individual basis (NOT PUBLIC FACEBOOK BLASTS please) but will not tolerate nay saying or character assassination of our former spouse. This is not an opportunity to “unfriend” the other as we are a united front on this decision. This will be a difficult and trying time for us both so any lingering ire shown to either of us from our friends that distracts our focus on our children and their best interest will be ignored and possibly blocked/deleted. Again thank you all for your support over the years and the continuation as we try and get settled into our new normal and move forward; no longer husband and wife, but co-parents and friends.

 

 

Love always,

Angela & Chip
