Be Here Now
As much as I have tried, I cannot escape that I still want to be an intact family again. Unfortunately for me, no one but Tom is the father of my kids and no one but that father of my kids is family. It haunts me. I never thought I would be that person, who in the face of such insult and cold dismissal, would not just say good riddance. But, I am who I am and often it ain't pretty. I have held back my feelings for too long, so you, dear reader, are the unfortunate recipient of same! :>
Below, in no particular order, is an attempt at a limited list of my blessings. Perhaps I will one day appreciate that I have way more than I could possibly deserve. And I must admit - putting this together made me laugh.

And so much more...

I am honored to be included. You have a path, and while it isn't quite what you may have thought, it is full....of love, of life and of laughter. And of each of us.
We love you.
Thats an awesome post. I loved all the pictures. There are some good ones! Weird though because on my list it didnt say that you had updated...
i love your blog clare, every once in a while i go thru and catch up. even tho you struggle, it's still uplifting to read; sprinkled with humor and insight along with the recuperating from a train wreck. (btw the yard looks great!!) Yea Clare!!! bonnie
Clare, comment number one has to be from Meg. Teh 'honored to be included' made me think so. Unless it is Paul or Nick.... or Murph, or Wicket.... No, I vote Meg.
The birthday party without the birthday girl and Tommy and Wallace both made me laugh out loud - the others just made me smile and cry. Yes, you do have a pretty full and loving life.
