SH, you are handling this just fine, I mean not keeping your life or emotions out of his life. For the moment, he can be just the kids' father. Hope his friend's family coming here is a good influence.
Not much at all going on my side. H keeps mentioning that he is getting old. Sometimes I am really scared that it will be MLC #2 (since MLC #1 lasted a short time relatively speaking). Anyway, take care.
