My kids are too busy

 My kids are too busy being kids to notice who doesn’t show up. They’re wrapped up in laughter, play, and the little joys of childhood. But I notice. And it matters.

If my energy toward you has changed, it’s because I refuse to let inconsistency weave its way into their world. They deserve people who are steady. People who love them with their whole hearts, not just when it’s convenient. That’s the love I give them every single day.

The truth is, they won’t be the ones missing out.

Neither will I.
You will.
And I’m not angry or bitter.

I’m simply protecting my kids, because they deserve nothing less than a love that always shows up.
