I hear you on the work excuse. I don't know if it's a case of true misguided priorities or just an excuse to not have to deal with life. I think it's a little bit of both for my case and probably yours too.

Congrats on S though. That is very exciting. It's frustrating that H wouldn't leave work to come and celebrate with you guys (amazing that he picked up his phone thought despite where he was), but I think that was great that you took S out anyways. That's a great accomplishment for him and he deserves that immediate reward. It's sad though (and frustrating for us) that our H's keep missing out on our S's accomplishments. Never in their lives are our S's going to progress as fast as they are now and everything is a learning experience. For me recently, it's been so exciting to watch S pick up a new word or showing decision making skills. It's very cool, but H is missing it.

It's hard to know what to do right now. You have no way of knowing what is going on in his head and what is real and what is fake. But as we all know, actions do speak louder than words, so you're right, until his actions match his "I love yous", it doesn't mean much. You're in the home stretch now though, so just continue to fight hard for these last 2.5 weeks and see what happens.
