Cautiously Optimistic

Journalling - interesting ....
H. texted me this morning. Asked if he could call about something. He doesn't make it a habit of texting me, and not in the mornings. My smart phone mostly stays pretty silent.

I felt myself getting anxious, took a few seconds to calm and texted back if I could ask what it was about.
A screw up H. texted back.
I texted, Sure call me.
He calls and begins to explain what's he's done. Now the funny thing is, he didn't even have to tell me about this. He could have corrected the mistake and I would have been none the wiser.
I don't get angry or upset, I'm pleasant, cheerful and mellow on the phone. He asked me again about arrangements for our kids while I'm away and he's late picking them up. I tell him it's all taken care of.
The kids are jostling in the background and H. tells me to say good morning to them. I ask if he would like to do that himself as they are right in front of me. He says yes and I hand over the phone. I take the phone from the youngest and thank him for letting me know and to have a good day.
About five minutes later I text him and thank him for his concientiousness and diligence in taking care of us. I text that it is appreciated and recognised.
He texts back you're welcome and repeats the correction of the mistake.


Hmmmm.
