You should also be on the lookout of any special programs in your area for kids to attend. There is one that is in various area's called Olivia's House. T

I admire you for having brought up three children on your own - knowing that I am not alone in this does help me find the strength to carry on. My kids are both under 3, and I am a very recent widower, so I do not doubt that I have a lot to learn about all of this. Knowing that others have done so before is such an inspiration. FYI, this email address is NOT spam-trapped, so I can be contacted directly on this, but I do accept that many people like to confine discussions within the group, so that others may benefit as well. Look forward to getting to know you over time, Patrick |
