Parenting as a Christian Single Dad

Christian life after divorce is what we make of it. If we hold on to the bitterness and hatred then our spiritual walk won’t be very fulfilling. But if we seek God and learn to reach out to others we are going to live a rewarding life.

Being divorced has it advantages and disadvantages, I can't believe I am saying that! Anyhow, today was Madalyn's birthday and she is spending it with mom. I was invited but I felt weird about it and I am scared to give Madalyn the wrong impression that mom and dad may get back together. (yes I tend to over analyze or maybe look for an excuse :-) ) Well apparently I am the proud new owner of half the bill for the party she had. I even got the call before the party was over that I owed the money. I don't recall agreeing to it but I am also non confrontational when it comes to Madalyn because I don't want her to be hurt by my stubbornness. I don't know why my ex feels I need to pay for half of everything. I take care of Madalyn and if she can't live in her means then she should cut back. I would of been happy to pay some money if I was asked up front, not after the fact. Oh well it is not worth fretting over. My little girl is growing up! The big 4!
