Question

Well tonight was eventful on the S side...lol. Normal toddler stuff. I was taking a shower and he found a pen. He usually is so good, but he drew all over the wall leading upstairs. I could not believe it. I took a picture and sent it to H with a cute note saying how I was lucky for so long, but the "normal" kid stuff was bound to happen sometime.

S is back to not wanting to fall asleep unless he is with me (always happens when H sees him). He was almost asleep when he went to take a drink from his cup and hit his lip against his teeth. Then he started crying and kept saying "I want my daddy". I said I would call H so S could talk to him (S is very vocal). I called, but no answer so I left a message. About 5 minutes later, H calls and I right away let S talk without saying anything. First thing S says is "daddy up". H says he can't, but talks to him for a while and then S starts saying how he wants me and was fine. I talked to H, said thank you for talking to S and asked about his day. I just listened and commiserated (he had a bad day). Then he asked if he could do anything else, and I said no and thank you again for talking to S. He said how glad he was to be able to help and call anytime. Also said let him know if I can't get the pen off the wall because he really wants to help me fix it. More proof he is trying...now if we could just get rid of OW things would be awesome!

Either way things are going well. We are even flirting a little. Nothing big, but at least it is something so continuing to be cautiously optimistic. Still only calling when it deals with S, but slowly working out of LRT as H keeps doing his part.
