Open house for school this morning. W and I took the girls to meet their teaches/see their classrooms. Our youngest is excited about starting kindergarten, always cute to see. We'll see how she feels on Monday when she actually has to go.
At any rate, standing in the kindergartner room and getting ready to go, W puts her hand on my shoulder for a few moments (something she used to do all the time). I didn't say anything and she took it away fairly quickly, but first time in a while she's done that. Baby step or habit from being in such a family situation?
Walking back from our older D's room, she walked close to me. Again, a little different. She's been keeping her distance when out together (we weren't always lovey dovey in public and could do the parent speed-get-the-kids-the-hell-out-of-wherever-we-were-because-they-were-being-disruptive walk with the best of them, but we were also one of those couples that walked close and constantly rubbed shoulders/bumped into each other). Again, another little thing, but a little different than the past.
Going to pay attention to this touching thing moving forward.
Felt really naked without my ring in that environment. Felt like I had a scarlett letter on my finger -- SEPERATED/DIVORCED PARENTS HERE. Blech, that sucked.
Kids have good teachers, so we're happy. D's 4th grad teacher isn't a big fan of homework, so that should make my D happy.
