There is a first time for everything

This morning Tin’s tooth fell out and tonight the tooth fairy is coming – all of this is happening at the Blue House (read: not my house). I’m not going to boo hoo but I’m just going to say this – it sucks. You wait 50 years for a child and have to split your time and it just sucks. Just sayin.

No one goes into a relationship thinking it won’t last and no one begins to parent a child with someone thinking they will split up and there are millions of children raised in divorced families and they are well adjusted. Tin has had his moments and he often feels conflicted about where he wants succor – the Red House or the Blue House – but I have to say, for me, the parent, it’s weird to say goodnight to your child and watch him walk away knowing the tooth fairy is coming tonight while he sleeps.

Very weird.
