My sons name is Samuel, it was his seventh birthday yesterday, and the only thing he asked for was that his mother would come home to visit him.
Im Daniel, a single father in Kitchener. My wife, well, ex-wife Nikki, had been having an affair with a co-worker of hers for about three years; I never suspected a thing. The man whom she was having an affair with, James, is also a single father in Kitchener, he had no idea that Nikki and I were married and when he found out she was pregnant, he proposed, apparently he was planning to for sometime.
Anyways, being a single father in Kitchener isnt all that easy, when Nikki left, I had to take on the mortgage by myself, and so Samuel and I ended up moving into a smaller place across town, he misses the old neighbourhood and it breaks my heart when he asks why we had to move.
Its been well over a year now since Nikki left, and Ive began my ascent out of depression. A close friend of mine, Mike, has been a single father in Kitchener for five years now when his wife suddenly passed unexpectedly. He has been extremely helpful to me and an excellent friend. Although I know it isnt true, some days I just feel like Im the only single father in Kitchener, it can be really rough.
After living as a single father in Kitchener for nearly two years, Ive finally met a woman who I am really bonding with. She went through a similar situation, has no children, but absolutely adores Samuel. They get along very well which is great for me because the last thing I want is to be a single father in Kitchener who is involved with someone who does not respect my son. I feel things are finally looking up for Samuel and I, and who knows, maybe I wont be a single father in Kitchener for much longer.
