Michelle,

THANKS. I felt I needed to bring a new step in the old routine of not saying anything. And so I did. Testing the waters. No doubt in my mind my W is thinking a million things right now, who knows. I followed up with an email last night encouraging my W to take the risk to trust again.

I encouraged her to take the risk for herself, so she can heal. I encouraged her to take the risk for the Boys, so they can heal as well, and maybe grow up with a father by their side. I finally encouraged her to take the risk to trust the new ME. Taking that risk is a matter of pure faith. I hope she'll consider all these thoughts...

I am glad the convo took place. I take it it's still part of doing a 180, trying something new to test the waters...Who knows, maybe it will truly challenge her thoughts.

Anyway, THANKS Michelle. I needed that boost from you. I hope you also have a "Michelle" to boost you up like you do it with me. It truly is a lifesaver.
