Start of the long and bumpy road........

[TwinDad]

Sure, you can use the note to self....I almost kicked myself afterwards. I really think she is starting to see what this whole separation thing is all about....particularly with kids. I think being apart from the kids is going to be difficult for her. She said she didn't want to be away from them that long. I asked her what did she suggest. She said that she keep them and I only get them every other weekend or something along those lines. I just shook my head and said sorry sweetie. I am just as much a paraent as you are (and I am fully involved Dad). I don't think this is a reason to change her mind but I think it might be enough to get her to think about just how hard she should work on our R as well.

I did teeter there for a minute or two about to stay or go and wanted to leave things on a good note for my week with the kids. It was actually very nice, she played cricket with my legs a few times through the night. Sounds silly, but is was better than having her hang on the side of the bed.
