A few years ago I had just gone through a long and difficult divorce.

几年前，我刚刚办完离婚手续，这是一个漫长而艰难的过程。

I was finally able to take my 9 month old daughter out (not just visit at mom's) with me and my 4 year old daughter.

我终于可以把9个月大的小女儿，还有4岁的大女孩带出家门去玩耍，而不仅仅是拜访一下。

Al beit for limited times.

可是这种出游的次数却有限制。

On my way home from work I had picked up the girls from daycare.

and enjoy our family time together.
