He is and will be a great potential "partner in life." I guess maybe I just need to stop thinking too much about it and take jonb's advice and focus on my happiness, my heart and my baby girl. I am sure things will happen for a reason--it's a little something called faith and I am not about to push the issue. Thanks to all of you for helping me talk through this-I don't have any single mama friends so noone knows how I feel, ever. I blog at www.motherverse.com and I am starting my own blog at www.picklesandpedicures.wordpress.com.

That is nothing. Benjamin lost his first tooth when Kris was watching him! I didn't really write about it, because, well... it could have happened to any one. Benjamin tripped on the sidewalk in his stupid winter moon boots. Anyway, I wasn't upset b/c he got on the phone immediately and one of his friends (a dentist) saw Benjamin on Christmas day. Yes, he lost his front tooth on Christmas. Sigh. Jon B!

Everything is as it should be, as hard as that is to accept at times. And things will be as the are to be. You don't need to force anything, just focus on your happiness, your heart, and your child. The rest will work itself out. Solo mama, M\my one word of advice is to be patient and take your time. Everything is as it should be, as hard as that is to accept at times.

At this time, I would liek to think that if things went wrong with us we could salvage a friendship and Slim and I could stay in touch. There is something powerful about him saying "i wuv you too" that hits hard. He desperately needs a male role model and he loves his rough and tumble time with me. Although I must say I would prefer option 1! lol. Well I can’t say I’m smart…I made an error in judgement and the little one hit his head way hard on my watch, so my name is mud right now.

Have you read this post? It might help. Sounds like you are where I was when I wrote this about my decision to break up with my ex-boyfriend. He was perfect in so many ways, but something wasn't sitting right... http://mssinglemama.wordpress.com/2008/05/07/did-i-lose-my-mr-good-enough/ Kris is still around by the way. He comes to see Benjamin, and watches him if I'm really in a bind. He's such a great friend. Jon B. - you're so smart ... make sure you two are solid before moving in. You have to for the little guy. And you know what - I think if, by some fluke chance, it didn't work out between you two that you would stay in his life... right? I have a friend who is in that situation.

Jon B. – you’re so smart … make sure you two are solid before moving in. You have to for the little guy. And you know what – I think if, by some fluke chance, it didn’t work out between you two that you would stay in his life… right? I have a friend who is in that situation.
