To My Little One: Mom and Dad Are Going to Be Living Separately, But Our Love for You is Unchanging
Dear precious child,
Tonight, as I drew down your cheerful polka dot shade and tucked you into your cozy pajamas, we sang our special song. But tonight felt different, heavier, as I realized we are embarking on a significant change. My sweet one, we are moving, and it weighs on my heart.
This evening marks the last time I will whisper, “I’ll see you in the morning” as I close this door to your room. This door has witnessed so many firsts: your very first night at home, the joy of your first Christmas, and the moment you slept on your own for the first time. Tonight, it signifies the last night we will all be under one roof together. I must share something that is difficult to say: Mom and Dad will no longer be living together. And for that, I am truly sorry.
When I shut the door and you called out for “Daddy,” it tore at my heart too.
I have pondered for countless sleepless nights how to convey this to you in a way that makes sense and eases your little heart. I want you to feel the immense love from both of us, even as we live a short distance apart. Yet, I sometimes feel like I’m failing at this because it’s a painful situation, and it makes me question our family’s journey. Perhaps I need to remind myself first that this change doesn’t mean failure; instead, it’s a step toward creating a more positive environment for you.
While it may seem like we’ve stumbled, I believe we haven’t failed in the larger picture. You, my darling, are the light in our lives, and that’s worth striving for. Please understand that the decision I made stems from love for everyone involved. We all deserve happiness, peace, and mutual respect. I want to show you what true love looks like, not the superficial version we often see in the media or from others around us. It’s important to stay authentic, even if it means making tough choices for the betterment of our family.
Who we are as individuals shapes who we are as parents. I am committed to being the best version of myself for you, teaching you that sometimes the right choices aren’t the easiest. I want you to know that you should never settle for anything that doesn’t respect who you are and your worth.
Goodnight, my sweet child. May your dreams be filled with all the wonder and innocence of your age, whether you’re snuggled up at Mom’s house or Dad’s. No matter where you lay your head, love is always with you.
