I hope so Yoyo. I do still love her and feel that she could be a wonderful Mom and Wife again. Too many years of disapointments and a support system that is unable to support them selves. I'm trying not to read to far into it, but her going to the counselor? Hmmmm... Who knows. I've had the kids with me since Fri. She's had them maybe an hour or two on a couple of days. I've been keeping the kids close as to not have them "kidnapped". I don't mean that literally. But, I made it clear that they were my charges now. Know one has challenged that. Cool. I spent a few minutes with my MIL yesterday. She was removing a bunch of her stuff from our basement. Looks as though my wife may not be there long. Social services called for my wife too. I guess she'll need the assistance, but then again I have the kids, so maybe not(?). Friends are offering to help with my kids also. I think it's good for them to be around my friends. They weren't exposed to my world much. They seem to like it so far. Document. You got it. Writing now.
