The New Adventures of Supermom...Part 3

[JennyF]

H brought D home around lunch time today. He held S for 1/2 hour and then went out to do some errands. Asked if I wanted anything at the liquor store and I asked him to pick up a couple bottles of wine. He came back and stayed for only 20 minutes and then left. He made the arrangements for what time he was going to back in the morning to watch D open her presents.

I was kind of expecting that he was going to come by tonight to help put D to bed (you know...cookies for Santa and all that stuff)...but obviously not. I wasn't really surprised, but I did start to well up as I said good-bye to him. I couldn't look at him. I was baking so I just kept doing what I was doing and tried to not look up. I caught his eyes looking at me briefly and if I hadn't looked away so quickly I may have sworn that I saw some emotion and perhaps he was even welled up a bit. I doubt it though...probably just my wishful thinking.

I kind of hope that he finds a reason to call me later...I don't know why but I feel as though I'm looking for sign that he is at least thinking about me in some shape or form. I know this is bad, but I can't help it.

So...it's just me and my kids. I've cried enough over the last 3 days that I think it's out of my system. When D wakes up from her nap we're going to do something really fun.
Merry Christmas to everyone! Hope you find peace in your heart tonight.
