Lean into the history of tenuous and you’ll find that the word comes to English from the Latin adjective tenuis, meaning “fine-drawn, thin, narrow, or slight,” and is a relative of thin. Like that

Some marriages end in divorce.

That's life.

But the real test? Trusting that your former spouse will choose someone who will love your child as their own. 🙌🏾

For a moment, that was scary. (IYKYK 😜)

But then something clicked — and thankfully, an amazing woman entered, as the kids say... the chat. 💬 Lynette, thank you for opening your heart to Jae. This weekend was a labor of love — and your ex*****on was flawless. I see you. We see you.

Now this is the part where I'm supposed to say something nice about their big head daddy 😜... Good job giving out orders, Keith Edwards- KC. 😜

In all seriousness — I am so grateful for how far we've come on this journey.

Co-parenting has its challenges.

But my first priority has always been: what about the kids? They didn't ask for life to change. So let's keep things as normal and routine as possible. Let's protect their peace.

On this journey I caught a lot of flack from the opinions of others on what I should or shouldn’t do. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Today I want to challenge every co-parent reading this —
✅ Always do what's best for the children. ✅ It is not their job to manage our feelings and emotions.
✅ We cannot use our children as weapons.

If you're in it right now and it feels heavy — you are not alone. 🤍
