A Day in the Life of a Single Parent

Yesterday I began to experience what it is like to be a single parent. My wife has left me...temporarily, of course. She flew out early Thursday morning from Syracuse, bound for a ladies retreat in Sebring, Florida where she will present our ministry.

So, for the next few days, it is Daddy and Mikey time. Of course, this is made somewhat easier by the fact that we are staying with my folks, and they are more than happy to spend time with their grandson.

Still, I have alot more respect now for single parents. Their life is not easy. And I only have one child. I can only imagine what life must be like for single parents with two children. From now on I will take time and pray for those single parents that I know. My wife is coming back next Tuesday, and my days as a single parent will be over. For many single parents, there is no end in sight.
