ms ladybug SQUISHED!

I called h last night to remind him that tomorrow morning is "donuts with dad" day at day-care for s2. He said he'd be there, and then said his usual, "I gotta go." He called me back about 2 min later and said, "I feel really bad, but I'm not going to be able to go tomorrow. I can't go to donuts with dad for d4, so I'd feel guilty doing it with s2, and it's really too early in the morning." I was really disappointed, because s2 loves to see his daddy, and it would have been special, but I was upbeat and said, "that's OK. I understand. The kids will do something with you on Father's Day anyway."
He then said, "In case the kids are wondering what to get me for Father's Day (please note the kids ages 2 & 4) this is what I want..." I said, "OK. I'll give them the message."
I then asked him if he'd be going to his grandma's party on Sat. He said, "no. That's my Monday." I told him I thought he was going to try to get it off. He said, "OK, I'll try to get it off. Remind me, OK?"
It felt good that he asked me to remind him. We used to joke about me being his schedule coordinator. If someone would tell him about an upcoming event, he'd always say, "Don't tell me. Tell my coordinator." So, also in a roundabout way (maybe I'm reaching here), it means, "talk to me before Sat."

Picasso, wow, no pressure from your wife about watching your every move adn listening to your every word, huh? But, your right, it IS accurate of what is likely going on.

And, I know pride is my enemy...it always has been.
