It is what it is....

K's friend A's parents are getting a divorce and A told K she was sad because she would only be able to see her Dad on Sundays; K said A started crying, so I asked K what she said to her friend to help her feel better about the situation, K told me I told her hey Sundays are better than never, I get never, then I told her to suck it up.

I don't tell K to suck it up when it comes to her father, I do sometimes say that though occasionally in reference to other things, I asked her if she wanted to talk about her Dad, and she said no and I told her that we could talk about him anytime she wants or she could talk about him with Uncle Erick or her Papa and she said, Mommy, it is what it is and I don't need to talk about it.

My 6 year old said it is what it is, in regards to her own father....makes me so sad....for her and him...and me to be honest....its crazy how long we can go without him ever coming up and then something like her friends parents divorcing or the father daughter dance, can bring him up and with him comes emotions that neither of us want to feel......

K shows me everyday how to become a bigger and better person......I hope I am teaching her a tenth of what she is teaching me.....
