WOW! What an amazing report. YOu and Javier are doing a great job--I'm actually proud of both of you!
And MIL too.
You guys are still a family in a new way and it's a beautiful gift to your children!!! They are very lucky to have parents who love them so much and who are willing to give them the gift of a true parent partnership--married or not! Some married couples aren't even able to be so friendly with each other or so helpful with the children.
I know, I keep doing the cheer leading, rah rah, "look on the bright side thing" but believe me, when you are coming at it from my angle--from a place where the kids are lucky to talk to Mitch once a week or see him once a month, well, you start to really appreciate the guys who, whether they were butt-heads and left the greatest woman in the world or not, still care enough about the kids (and you) to be good to them.
I'm gonna ask Mitch to replace the light bulbs again this weekend while I'm in Chicago (he and the kids will be stopping by to feed the pets). I asked him last time (they are WAY high and he needs to get out the big ladder) and he didn't do it--big surprise! I'll keep you posted.
Love, Althea
