Just Getting Started

Hello all!! I have decided that I need a way to express my feelings and thoughts....I have seen several friends that have a blog and thought this would be a way to help myself! To start off I have three children, ages 17, 13, and 7. I try hard everyday to make them top priority even though it becomes harder everyday. Life now has become so hectic and you never know if you are coming or going. I will begin to use blogging as an escape and hopefully find many friends that can help....I will always be open to any advise that is offered. I am now learning that you can not do things on your own.
In August of 2008 I moved to Plymouth. It was closer to my job and I was living with my parents which was taking a toll on everyone. Greg (17 year old) did not want to move with me and I completely understood. He only has two years left in school and that was fine. In February 2009, Jordan (7 year old) moved back to his daddy's. This has completely killed me. I know the decision was not all his own. His father is good for promising him things to move back and in February he promised him a new bed if he moved back with him. So he did. Now Storie (13 year old) wants to move back with her Dad (father same as 17 year old) because she wants to go to Northampton-East High School. So what do I do?? I am trying to be open-minded but it is so hard. Any advice on how to deal with this.....Any other moms out there that are dealing with the kids wanting to live with their Dad's?
