We had a football game today (lost again). My Mom came to the game today and had some observations. When my wife got there she kept her distance from my mom and then quickly warmed up and spent some time with her. After the game my wife was giving my SIL, FIL, and then S12 a kiss and a hug. She looked at me and gave me a smirk and said "What?" like she wanted me to say I wanted one too. My mom watched all this and said my wife was making the move like she wanted to give me one but then stopped herself.
My wife walked with me to the car and playfully gave me a hard time about my coaching abilities. I sarcastically told her thanks and she said "I will always be the one to give it to you straight"
She went on to explain to me about who's party she's going to tonight. It's like she wants me involved in the things she's doing in her life.
