End of Piecing?

[Lord Grenville]

Hi Hopeforfuture and Mom of 2 Cherubs,

I want to say how much I respect the two of you for bravely contributing both facets of your lives to this online forum.

We all can learn so much from reading and trying to relate to both sides of your piecing work that you share here.

I do have a question for both of you, especially MO2C, if you don't mind answering. Did HFF have to convince you, MO2c, to attend Retrouvaille, or was it something you wanted to do too? The reason I ask is my WAW has declinced attending two previous times (1 year ago and 6 months ago) and there is an April 11 - 13 Retrouvaille coming up soon.

I asked her two weeks ago if she would consider attending and she began to express hesitation again that it would not be a positive experience for her. I reminded her that we would be learning new communication techniques that would help us in future relationships if she goes forward with D.

I have not spoken with her about Retrouvaille since two weeks ago, but I will need to ask her sometime this week because we will need to register before it fills up.

Is there anything else I can say to reassure my WAW (who is probabaly also in MLC) that the Retrouvaille weekend could be a positive experience for her?

Thanks,

LG
