Max’s Conversation With A Cat

(My gorgeous son chilling eating grapes and watching T.V.).

My son Max really does make me laugh.

He is an animal lover like his mummy.

In the garden last week, a cat decided it was going to stroll through. Catching Max’s eye, my son’s face suddenly had a huge smile on it, and he started to converse with it. The cat stopped, and bearing in mind, Max cannot say “meow” properly, the conversation went something like this:

Max – “owwww.”

Cat – “Meow”

Max – “Ow?”

Cat – “Meow, meow.”

Max – “owww, owww.”

As the cat walked off and Max said “Bye”.

It was one of the cutest conversations ever! 😀 ❤

My Heart, My Life, My Everything

(Max chilling by the pool.)

This little boy has no idea how much he means to me! He is such a cutie, with the best temperament ever! Always smiling and happy, I couldn’t ask for more. Max is energetic and charming. Just like his mummy, he makes friends wherever he goes 🙂 .

If I’m upset, I try not to show it, but I believe somehow, he can feel it, as he’ll hug and kiss me, which is always followed by a smile and something said in ‘baby language’.

He no longer needs his dummy/pacifier.

At nineteen months, he can put his shorts on by himself, and in general, is very independent.

Where has the time gone? He’s growing so fast. But he’ll always be my baby.

Max is truly my heart, my life, my everything.

The only male who will ever be able to control me (for now! 😀 ), I feel so blessed to have him. ❤

Steve And Britney

(Please note, he did not look like this when I met him!).

I’ve known for quite some time, plus had an inkling months ago, but I hear congratulations are in order to the couple – they are expecting! Maybe *Steve and *Britney will be responsible for this child, as they already have three between them they don’t support, live with or know; she has a three year old daughter (the one she was pregnant with when she was caught shoplifting), and he has a daughter who is almost eight, but has only seen three times in her life, not to mention my son, one year old Max.

(State of Georgia Child Support Portal shows as of July 27th, he is in arrears with our son to the tune of $4,015.52. As of August 1st, the amount will increase Bear in mind, the Support Order only started September 1st 2013, and he was in arrears by the end of the month).

After many promises of help for our son, he decided to shun his responsibility for a life of leisure. It was I who, last year January (2013) wrote to Montana Child Support, whilst I was still living with him, to tell them of his whereabouts. Until he left the Army on December 4th 2012, due to not being able to re-enlist as he was going to be chaptered/kicked out, I had known him to be paying Child Support to his daughter.

He is also in arrears with Child Support with his daughter.

His driver’s licence is still suspended because of the arrears, since December 4th 2013.

Maybe this time they will be responsible parents and actually raise this (unborn) child. But it is going to be very interesting to see how on earth they are going to be able to explain to their other three children (in total, even though he’s twenty-six and she’s twenty-two, they have a fourth one one on the way) that they did not care to be in their lives. I guess they’ll blame the Custodial Parents for that. Blame shifting is the key for narcissists/psychopaths/sociopaths. But I have all the messages from *Steve ill treating me and saying he will not support our son. And I am going to show them to Max when he is of age to understand them.

Just like I am going to show Max the messages from each and every single one on Steve’s family members who have shunned him in favour for the new child – to include his father, step-mother, biological mother, and both his sisters – as well actual messages from them about Steve, how they slagged off Britney, etc.

Oh, and yes, he is still legally married to me.

My Absence Explained

I decided to take time out this week, because I wanted to follow my son’s pattern/schedule. So, I have been napping and sleeping when he does. This way, I can be awake and ready to go when he is. Although I’m still not eating much, if anything at all, I have been drinking plenty of water. The permanent headache is not as intense as it used to be – for now.

With that being said, I am feeling a bit better. A little less… tired. I could feel, with all the stress over the past couple of weeks or so, my PTSD really kicking in. I had to slow things down a lot.

I miss my family and friends.

I miss London, UK.

If there were more to do where I am, it would be easier. I’m a city gal. Always have been. Always will be.

Besides, Max my little American born boy misses British food. As do I. 🙂

Happy Father’s Day… To Me!

Yes, that’s right! Happy Father’s Day to me, as I am both parents to my son. I hope all the fathers (who are actively in their children’s lives) and step fathers have a wonderful day.

Much Love. ❤
