Worried, Worried....

Nowadays the kids and I are a little worried that in the middle of this month we’re going to live in this country without his presence among us. My hubby got scholarship from the government to continue his study to the Netherlands for approximately 1 year. Actually he had planned his departure tomorrow but since he hasn’t get his visa yet so there isn’t fixed date for it. For us maybe it’s just like blessing in disguise.. we’re having more left days together with him.

Deep in my heart I think I’m the one –not my kids- who’s the worries people at home to faced the days without him. We never had separated family life before. I couldn’t imagine I should fix every small troubled thing at home by myself and about the kids… also I should taking care all 3 of them without too much negative emotion such like snap at them, get angry…. OMG, I tell you they always know for sure how to get on each others nerves.

I’m not sure what I’ll have for those days….So many things crowded on my mind.
Would I get more stressed or would I become a competent mom..
Would all of us just be fine …
Would my hubby be fine to cope with his life there ....
Oh… so many ..

I’m really glad and appreciate if some of you have ever had such an experience like this in the family, and could share with me.

This is so scary, Henny. I know. But I also know that even though things will be hard, you will do fine. You are a wonderful mother and your children are good people. It doesn't make it any easier, but I believe all of you will be just fine.
You are a special person, Henny.

I wanted to leave a comment the other day but blogger had problems. Don't have this experience but I am sure that when it really matters, we all can make it. It'll be hard but you will handle it and learn from the experience too I am sure.
