Happy day!

Post by Happy Stitcher »

Hi everyone, I'm really happy tonght. It's a long story and I don't want to go into all the detail but basically for 18 months my son has been going through a painful and cruel marriage split up. It's been a journey to hell and back for all of us, but today my son has won the custody battle and now gets 50/50 shared care of his children.
It really has been a very difficult time and certainly stressful but at last we have come through and I can honestly say that there is definitely a silver lining to every cloud! So please, will you raise a glass with me and shout.......HOORAY!! :dance: :dance:

That's great news - you must be so relieved! My brother went through the hell of a divorce a few years ago and it's not an experience I'd wish on anyone. I hope your son and his kids have nothing but good times ahead. Happy, happy days to all of you :D
