The last few weeks has been interesting. Ex is going through some issues. A lot of stress at work, a couple of near break downs at least the apperance of said.
I've received a few calls with tears and not knowing what to do, feeling like a bad person, bad mother. Well we talked and she is seeking some help. Good for her and good for the boy. Well during that time our son's b-day came along. I took care of that and made sure he had a blast. She was very appreciative of the help. Normally, I leave all that to her because I just don't do a "good job".
Anyway, this last Sunday she came to church and since I wasn't singing sat with me. She didn't have to because our S was in kids sunday school. There was an open row of chairs but she choose the one right next to me. S had some extra chariculars and while she waited she came over to my place (our former house) and watched a show with me while she waited. Mind you her folks live in town and she could have gone there.
So I'm seeing this as something good. I don't know why but I still love and care for her and want things to work out. Am I nuts.............

No, you're not nuts. You spent a decade of your life with her. It's hard to detach from their issues when you still care so much about them. And having to co-parent just adds to the difficulties I'd imagine.
Hey, that's great that you did so well with S's B-day!
Good luck, and enjoy the positives, whether it leads anywhere or not.
