Kate Plus 8

Kate Plus 8Kate Plus 8, It’s over! Kate Plus 8 is officially no more, and after watching the series finale, I dare to question the trial of Kate or analyze her mothering skills or the disappearance of her crumbling marriage. No, I’m too busy being sad.

He calls sap whether (not the first time someone accused me of being too sentimental), but seeing all the clips in recent years, listening to Kate and the children talk about their experiences … well, came to me. I have the same sense of nostalgia, emptiness that I have when I see video at my children (who are around the same age as the Gosselin): They grow so fast.

More often than not, (as Kate) are too busy changing diapers and preparing meals and taking the child goes the way it is supposed to not realize how fast this is happening, and that is a painful exercise of do.

Jon look up babies in their cribs, pajamas and all the great toothless smile … awww. It will never be that little bit more! Little Aaden have their “special day” on the farm, looking through the large vessels trying to see sheep through the car window … Read the news at the camera in a tiny voice: “Hannah poop.” Christmas morning … is all in the blink of an eye. And as a mother, that kills me.

Then, of course – in fact, I think I’ll delve into things of marriage Kate / Jon – there were painful moments of time when the Gosselins were separating. Kate speaking on behalf of young children “5 years of age, in particular, was a tearjerker. Photo of the feast of the children sitting on a bench with Jon and Kate perched like bookends on opposite sides was” our image the previous family, “said Kate, her eyes wide open. What was happening behind the scenes” stole the joy of the birth of my children, “he said.

Any parent who has gone through a divorce knows exactly the feeling Kate is talking, and I do not care who’s right or who has done wrong, it is an anguish that I would not wish on my worst enemy.

I have nothing against Jon actually see clips of old shows reminded me how much I used to it. He loves his children, no doubt about that. Both do. And when was the trip to Hawaii episode renewal / pledge that Kate and Jon promised the kids that mom and dad would be together forever, no matter what? I cried. Why not?

Maybe if you have not gone through a divorce yourself, or not a child of divorce, you would be able to maintain composure through scenes like that. But if you have, dammit! It really hits a nerve. And that’s why I can not judge Kate. Say what you want with the money and the media and everything else that has suffered some severe pain. So has Jon, and children have done. Kate said that in the end she does not hate Jon, who has no malice toward him. Of course not. He is the father of her children and she always, on some level, I love that.

And so I hope the Gosselins are able to heal and move on. To heal and to be happy and find love.
