Last night I went out for a long walk with a girl friend of mine who's been a really great sounding board for me. Sometimes it surprises me that I'm able to laugh at some things even during what I'd consider the hardest time in my life. I came home and H was still awake. I sat with him for a while and really paid attention to him, listened to him, but didn't initiate any conversation. Went to bed soon after with a simple goodnight kiss. This morning he came over to me at the breakfast table and gave me a long hug and kiss on the head and said, "Happy Valentine's Day. I want you to know that I love you" Of course, me being the stickler I am, I immediately said "Valentine's Day is tomorrow" (oops, keep mouth shut) but quickly followed with "but thank you, I love you very much too." !!! It's these little things that give me hope and make me think there is still a warm and beating heart in H still! I'm trying not to read into them too much, and just moving forward with life, working on my own plans. But it did make me feel good to hear that...
