so its mothers day here in the uk, son as revealed his mystery shopping, a nice card, a lovely necklace and bracelet set, and a little cuddly mouse with I love you mum on it, he as also revealed that it was dads idea to take him shopping for them, I texted ex to say thankyou for taking son shopping, didnt mention the gifts in it so that wife couldnt read anything into it, he texted back straigh away and simply said, no problem, so thats it folks a true improvement in the life and times of mandyloo, as I said ex hasnt done this for son for over 5 years so it could even be a little baby step. x
Your son certainly had a fine day of shopping. He gave you some really wonderful gifts and they all come from the heart. He put a lot of thought in them, especially the little mouse.
You did the right thing in texting the "x" and thanking him. It is definitely an improvement from years ago.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.

Um, yeah, happy mother's day. You have a super son! I am, yes, Trusting said it well ... speechless. Agog, perhaps. Mouth wide open and waiting for someone to life my chin and close it. WTH! I never thought your X would have it in him to take S shopping for you. You deserve it, no doubt, but he was such an a..hole.
I am glad, truly, Mandy. I hope he continues to connect with S. I am too scared to say, "Yay!" But, I'm going to say it, nonetheless, "YAY!" Awesome.
