Last night my wife told me she is looking for a second job. She already works insane hours - and so my impulse was/is to offer to help her - to try to give her more time with the baby - to step in and "fix" things for her...but I just think that might be there wrong thing to do since it is what I've always done. If she does get a second job, the baby will just spend more time with me - so I'm not worried about that - though I do worry about just how much she's going to wear herself out. Still....it was her choice to move out, separate and be "independent" - shouldn't I keep out of it - and let her ride this journey as she must?

Also...I sometimes think of sending her a quick email just saying, hey, I just wanted to let you know that if you're ever willing, I am open to starting again from scratch. - or is that best left unsaid for now?
