WAW Using God II

[pigskin]

I'm doing OK, IDU, thanks for asking. Still have bouts of impatience with my sitch, but that is to be expected. I have to keep telling myself that it is in God's hands and I can't mess with his plan.

I started the habit of praying the rosary every night in bed (first time since I was a babe in Catholic elementary school) and I have to say it is very calming and powerful. I included my wife's physical ailment in my intentions last night, as she had asked me to pray for her, and lo and behold, today she is feeling much better. She kind of chalked it up to the various remedies she was applying, but they weren't working before.

Kids are doing fine, no issues, but they also don't know anything about what they are facing. Haven't had to deal with any emotional outbursts from them at all. They seem totally in the dark, which is good. W and I rarely argue, haven't gotten into any recent heated debates, and never do so in front of the kids, so they only see us interacting very pleasantly.

I feel for you in dealing with your kids - they obviously heard something. Moving isn't something a kid would come up with on their own. Your wife is likely lying to you - the WAWs can do it point blank to your face, so it's a good bet your son isn't making up what he said he heard.

My bottom line is I don't want a divorce, so until I do, I have to view it as God wanting me to continue to wait on what He has in store for us. I had thought about setting an end of May deadline for moving on this, but the sign I received yesterday has me holding back.

I'm planning on asking W if she would like to spend Mothers Day with us on Sunday (since it is my day with the kids) and grill out for dinner. Maybe invite my mother in law to surprise the W if she can make it.

Thanks for your prayers. I'll throw you in with the rest of my requests in the rosary tonight!
