Today is D's b-day. Two years old. I can't believe it. I had planned to take the kids out to eat and invited H to join in the celebration. He accepted the invite and agreed to meet us at the restaurant. After the conversation we had the other day, I was surprised he wanted to join us. I guess that is what you get when there are no expectations.
Dinner went well. The kids were happy H was there. Surprisingly enough I didn't feel nervous or awkward to be around H. I just continued to act as if and was able to keep the conversation flowing with ease. (Two weeks ago, I wouldn't have been able to do this.) We even had an unknown elderly couple stop by and comment on our 'beautiful family'. Of course I said thank you, but on the inside I was thinking, if they only knew.
