After missing my wekend with the kids due to my illness I went to pick them up for dinner last night for my normal visitation on monday which is 4pm to 6:30pm.
The kids and I had a good time and my D2 is FINALLY going to the potty! We put underwear on her instead of diapers and she got the idea.
I got back to the house with them and it turns out that stbxw is coming down with a cold. She was still warm and inviting though so I stayed. At one point the kids were getting a little crazy so I said, "Let's go outside kids and give Mom some peace."
We went for a walk and ended up at the park. By this time it was already 7:30 so I gave stbxw a call... she was asleep on the couch and sounded run down so I told her we would be back later. She was sounded gratefull for the break.
We get back about 8pm and I ran a bath for the kids. Added some bubblebath to the water and they had a good time. Get the kids out of the bath, dressed D2, read some bedtime stories, and brushed teeth.
D8 called for me from downstairs and said, "Mom has something she wants to say." She was still lying on the couch so I went up and sat down on the coffee table right in front of her. Stbxw said, "thank you for helping out with the girls." I said it was no problem and she let her hand fall onto mine. At first she seemed to second guess that but then was fine with it because I was.?
I sent her a text today to wish her good health and to also let her know that I would call to check up on her later in the day.
She responded, "thank you, I am feeling a little better. Call me later after 3:30."
So, I guess I am coming out of the dark a little bit. Should I?
