It's been a while, and now....

In the recent weeks, I've been following the fodder on line regarding my favorite TV family, Jon and Kate Gosselin, hoping that the rumors abound were mularkie...however, tonight, the episode just proved that sometimes what you read on the internet is actually true. Websites like People.com, Usweekly online, Just Jared, and so on, regularly pay people BIG money to follow this family and take photos of them, including Radaronline.com and TMZ.com. These tabloids have the family followed and pay BIG MONEY for photos of the family, and in light of tonight's revelation of the filing for a disolution of the Gosselin Marriage, photos and copies of the actual court filings will become HOT commodities.
However, there are REAL people's lives at stake here, including a mother who wants to try to do the best for her family (don't ALL moms strive for that), a father who isn't sure of what in his life will make him happy, and eight innocent faces and hearts who have to NOW deal with the fall out of what happened between mommy and daddy.
While I don't know either of the adult Gosselins, or will she become a Kreider again? I do know that there is alot of hurt, anger and unknowns ahead for this family. And while they have to do what they feel is best for their family, I hope that they all find peace in the knowledge that God will guide them down the paths that HE has chosen for them. I hope that Kate knows that there are fans who support her and would like to wish her the best in this pursuit, and that Jon knows that the grass might not be greener on the other side of divorce. I just hope that they can find their OWN peace.

  1. I liked your post. I don't think that the grass will be greener for Jon... Sure he might go out and party and who knows what but in the end i think that he will regret how things went down and that his family is not whole anymore. =( He said last season something about doing more family things. Now i don't know if he meant that.
    My heart hurts for this family i wish them the best.

  2. Love your post!
    It looks like Jon and Kate are doing the right things: celebrating the 4th of July together with the kids and actually any family event is very important. I hope that with the time they will learn to celebrate birthdays (his and hers), mother’s day and fathers day too. My friend Amit that went through a tough divorce claims that those things are the most important, and that they bring more confident to the kids.
    I keep them in my prays.
