jon & kate plus 8

last night was the season premier. it was maybe the saddest thing i've ever seen.

apparently something has gone terribly wrong in their marriage and they are separated. more than physically, you can see the separation in their attitudes and feelings. by the end of the show, jon and kate were sitting together talking to the camera. there was visible space between them. jon looked hard and cold and kate acted hurt and angry. whether what the media says about jon is true or not, they are a family i've watched for years. it was just so painful to watch a real couple go through this terrible situation in the public eye.

at the end, kate was crying. i was crying with her.

i know what i saw last night has been going on for months now, but i prayed for them both. i pray that Jesus speaks peace, comfort and forgiveness into their lives.

It is a symbol of how quickly things can go wrong in a marriage if we don't cling to our maker. I think that is why it is so sad.

i cried too! and prayed. i hope they make it. oh, i hope they make it. those eight babies NEED their parents together. all this, "my kids know i love them and that's all that matters" isn't enough. they need to know YOU love EACH OTHER. dang it, jon and kate. lord, work a miracle to show the world..

I know!!! It was so so so sad. Me and the girls have watched that for years. I prayed for them too. We even had a conversation about it at school.
