For those who dont read between lines: 

Doug and I are splitting up. 

I am moving out. 

I am taking the younger three kids with me to the new house. 

The new house is still in Pencoed. 

Its not sudden, its been at least 5 years (probably more) in the making. 

Doug will always be part of my family and we’ll always have six children together so we are both trying our best to just make a new normal for our family without acrimony. Modern day families come in all shapes and sizes. From mid October 2017 ours will have two houses. 

Yes Im sad. Im very sad im leaving the house two of my children were born in. Im very very sad to be “leaving” 3 kids (but im staying in Pencoed, on the school route, and Doug has agreed Ill be staying in the family house when hes away for work). 

But im excited to see what the future brings.
