So H picked me up on time... and the class was a bit slow but fairly informative. H had a tshirt on with one of the teams playing in the Stanley Cup, so someone on the elevator made a comment if he was watching the game tonight and H said no, said he was given a ticken to the game but is going to birthing classes. May seem like no big deal but H is HUGE hockey fan, still plays in a league. And this game is major. I was floored! He answered the guy calmly not sarcastically. I said your S would be very happy to know the sacrifice you made for him, and he replied, I did it for you. (Sigh)
throughout the night I was great, composed. Looked my best, smiled and was trying to exhude confidence and H acted like my H. Wierd! But I let it be. They showed a video with different couples giving birth, and when they got to the part where the baby was finally born and they announced girl or boy and laid the baby on the mom, H looked at me with a huge smile in his face. he seemed really happy. Things were pretty normal. They talked a bit about babies recognizing their parents voices and it helps the baby to bond with his mother and father and H turned to me and said, oh wow... baby wont recognize me. Felt like saying, Yeah and I told you that!!! instead I responded with, you can still talk to him. But H seemed fairly content.
We were handed out paperwork on the next 5 classes, and found out that one night, he is on-call at the hospital, but he offered to change it. and another is on the night of the day he graduates. I said i understand if you cannot make it since you may be celebrating with family and friends and he said he's rather be there with me. (hmmmmm)
Our classes are held in the hospital where I will be delivering and H was timing the minutes... 9 to be exact! He said look I can get you to the hospital in 9 minutes! We talked about the pediatrician and after the class he asked about getting the car seat ready and so on. Class was good, and it refreshed my mind with lots of things I read but H seemed to have learned a lot.
On our 9 minute drive home, H asked if I wanted a ticket to his graduation... which is exactly 6 years to the day we got engaged... a silly anniversary we always celebrated. I didnt know what to say. So I didnt say much. Bc I felt like asking why would you want me there... as a wife or a friend or your baby mama? He also made it sound at first like it was no big deal, if you want the ticket great, if not no worries... Just so happens my BIL is graduation from the same university that day, so tried to play it off like, you would be there for both of our graduation. H knows I could care less about BIL (sorry but true) so I said are you asking me to come your grad or to just have the extra ticket. He said no I want you there for me.
I am shocked. he said you dont have to give me an answer right now. (Good! Because i need to think about it and go talk to my friends on DB!)
Pulled up in front of my house, I said thank you and he said I had a great time... thank you and bye.
Good night... no expectations. Not really sure what to make of anything.
