Last Wednesday my step dad had a heart attack (minor), and then later that night, sick, very very sick (flu) D4 ended up in the hospital for fluids. Back and forth from the cardiac ICU to pediatrics. What a rough week/weekend. xH helped when he could but worked most days. He met me at the hospital and stayed the entire time she was there. We both left in scrubs, as D4 was sick all over both of us. We had a lot of time together, shared a lot of vomit and other bodily fluids, and cared for D4 together. We worked perfectly together. I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. It was so nice.
Step dad is better, and D4 finally has her spunk back this week, although she loses her energy pretty fast if she gets busy. I was so worried about my princess.
Yesterday my heat broke, but before I even knew it was broken, xH had it fixed.
Today, xH spent the day assembling a wooden playset for the backyard. The girls are stoked.
xH continues to give me his paychecks, taking a small amount out for his gas.
He also is leaving every single night and respecting my space.
These are all good things!
Getting really excited for the holidays!! I love watching it unfold through the girls' eyes!!!
