ok so my wifes friend who was going to pick the kids up for her visit with tonight got stuck in a really bad traffic jamb. So i drove the kids to her friends house, dropped them off and went out for coffee with a friend.
I made sure i looked good, wore her favourite cologne and i was about 35 minutes late in picking the kids back up.
She did question why i was late, and i said we lost track of time. She asked me who we was and i just said a friend and started getting the kids loaded into the car.
She walked over to me and thanked me for helping her out tonight and she just hugged me, took a long sniff and said "dam you smell good" i said thank you, good bye and drove away.
I am learning, and i will tell you she watched the car until i turned the corner.
I tell myself repeatedly throughout the day, i will not fight or argue. I will be positive. Tonight felt like a great baby step.
