I think that what I was doing, was that even though I was saying that I have no expectations, I WAS having expectations. Too many.
Like today. I've been EXPECTING an email or call or text from her about the test or anything actually. I just have to remember that she is probably very busy at work. I know they are short staffed.
NO EXPECTATIONS!
I am comfortable thinking that I did do my best and went as far as I could, at a very large emotional toll. I can look myself in the mirror and I can look my kids in the eyes.
I believe this.
I was thinking that, when I pick up my girls, of picking up my son, too. Take them home for dinner at my house. The wife is supposed to have a dinner tonight for work and didn't give me any indication of what time she would be done. I was thinking of shooting her an email letting her know this and that she can come pick him up when she is done.
Of course, this may give her a small window of opportunity for a quick meet with OM, but it's the right thing to do for my son.
She's gonna do what she's gonna do anyway, but she may suprise me. And I hate that I have to be the one to contact her for something, first. I'll consider sending it at 4.
I may just send her a text when I pick them up, so that there isn't much time for planning.
I think that might be better.
