Can we just have a big group hug today. I think we both need it! Anyone else want to join in?
You know, when D3 (almost D4) was about 1 1/2, not long after we moved here, H decided that it would be best for her to stay at home with one of us. Since I've been with my co. for 12 years and have all the vaca./benefits, that one would be him. He would get a part-time job at night & stay home with her. I think he convinced himself that it was best, as a way of justifying not getting a great full-time position. He talked and boasted about how he was a stay-at-home dad & about how much time he spent with her & how strong their bond was. That was okay for us financially, but it put us in a spot where we never saw each other. Now, compared to then, he barely spends time with her at all. Sad.
I know I just rambled and took over your thread, but I know how you feel. It crushes you to see the reaction on your child's face or when they ask about your S. They see it. They're not dumb.
I hope what you suspect about your W moving away isn't true.
Hugs to you my friend!!
Sue
