The whole event was pretty awful. Emmett was miserable and on overload from everything that was going on. Long story short, he was so brave and handled himself so well. I couldn’t be prouder of him.
Emmett’s okay and managed to avoid surgery. I felt it was best to get him home ASAP, so we left a day early. Emmett and I made a few stops on the way home. Elliott and Gavin stayed an extra day and are coming home with my parents. I miss my boys but I also cherished the time with Emmett.
It worked out best this way because we’ve really outgrown my car and I’m not in a place to upsize just yet. Emmett needed the extra room to get comfortable for the 7 hour drive home.
Elliott is so sweet. He called a few times to make sure we were doing okay.
I sometimes struggle with negative thoughts about myself and that I’m not good enough but my kids are fucking amazing so I must have done something right along the way.
I’ve been neck deep in my feels all week. I’m a super emotional guy and I have so much going on in my life right now. I can sometimes be overwhelmed by my emotions but not in a bad way.
My kids are doing amazingly well. My girlfriend is the absolute best and my family is awesome.
My work has been going viral and I have new opportunities popping up left and right. It’s a lot and it can also be overwhelming especially with the ADHD stuff but I’m so grateful to be where I am. I have a lot of work left to do but I’m putting one foot in front of the other and moving forward every day.
Even though my life can be a lot to manage at times, I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. It doesn’t have to be perfect to be perfect for me.
