Tessa

Tessa called me tonight.

Her divorce is final.

Her and Ian are no longer married.

She said its weird because she can't seem to shed a tear and that Ian can't stop crying.

It is so sad to think that 10 years ago they were so in love and they couldn't wait even a week to get married.

Just the other day Tessa was telling me she couldn't wait another day until the divorce was final.

People can change and it scares me. It can happen to anyone. And it happens little by little with small things as we slowly let Satan into our hearts.

I am not worried about Tessa tho. 

She has a bright future and I think her Mr. Right is right around the corner.

Jade even said the other night, "Mom, I want you to get married fast. And I want you to have another baby, fast". 

And really, maybe I'm jumping the gun, but I think she has already met him.

And I think the whole process with them deciding to get divorced and how long and drug out it was was just the way it needed to be. It had to be this way for Tessa to see Ian how he is and for her to feel at peace to make her decision to leave him and to not feel like she had no say. She was all for trying to keep the family together. But by having so much time pass, she was able to see and learn so much about Ian that she was able to realize she didn't want to stay.

She is strong and I love her and I can't wait to see what is in her future (or who!)
