Hi, Amethyst. I've been thinking about your situation with Rick and it resonates with me some. Also, I wanted to share this link from another wife and mother (and the dozens and dozens of comments!) to let you know you are not alone . . . http://motherhooduncensored.typepad.com/motherhood_uncensored/2006/05/im_tired_of_thi.html

We care very deeply, Jayne, Jules and I.
