Thanks, Mach...you are so right. I'm just not used to him taking the kids...he is usually Mr. 'disappero'.
I ran my 4 miler today...I feel much more relaxed and am looking forward to a peaceful glass of wine in a couple hours.
I am fighting this insecure nagging feeling of threat...like he is stealing the kids.
Common sense tells me H needs to become a 'parent' sometime...he needs to feel better about himself somehow. Starting with the kids should be a good thing, right?
I feel left out...yet, I shouldn't.
I wouldn't feel left out if we were a family unit and he was taking the kids for the weekend on a fun trip or something. I would be LOVIN' it.
I don't know why I feel threatened, insecure, and left behind...unwanted.
I think I should find more relief in this.
