This is exactly what I am working on. Last evening was a lot more positive and I have to admit "reassuring" for me. He had to be @ work at 4a.m. so he went to bed pretty early, but asked me to "tuck him in." So I went in & we just lay there & he thanked me for cuddling w/ him for a bit. He was showing me that he loves me and that everything is fine. Don't get me wrong, I didn't make a HUGE deal out of the way I was feeling the last couple of days, but he knew I was feeling a bit insecure etc.

Anyway, big weekend. Middle son's 4th bday was this past week so we have his bday party this weekend. Out of town in-laws etc.
