Winner, 'My biggest transition moment in a relationship so far..' contest
Your stories of relationship transitions were amazing, inspiring, and sometimes heartbreaking! Thank you all for sharing! This week's winner of a $100 Joy of Spa gift certificate:
The biggest transition moment is when you realize that your kids are
old enough to not need you any more for everything. They will always' need' you, but one day you wake up and see that all your years of
growing and raising them have come to fruition and they are independent
young people because of you and the love you have given. It is the best
investment and transition of your life! Susan Lancaster

My biggest transition having our first babe (Haley) and moving our
relationship as lovers to parents and all that has evolved since. We
now have 2 kiddos and are continuing to create & recreate new
roles for ourselves as we redefine who we are in our relationship...
My biggest transition moment in a relationship was when I realized it
was not all about me. By helping the other person grow (either a friend
or boyfriend), it helped me grow and become a better person. Sometimes
it just meant letting go....
When I asked him, "What do I mean to you?" and he couldn't come up with an answer...
I was able to sit at my mother's death bed and say, truthfully, "I love you and forgive you."
My biggest transition moment was when I realized that my relationship of
7 years was going nowhere, and it was time to move on. I finally
realized that he was all about himself and what was best for him, and I
couldn't live with that anymore. Shortly after, I reconnected with an
old high school friend, who is now the man of my dreams. I now know
what a relationship can and should be!
