WAH - It's getting ugly

[25yearsmlc]

Thanks, 25.

H came by to pick up the boys. He should be back around 5:30 or so.

I want to ask him to stick around for dinner, but I won't. No cake-eating here!

When he goes to leave, I am thinking of following him out to thank him for taking the boys. I'd like to say something like, "I know you didn't do it for me, but thank you for taking the boys today. I enjoyed my little bit of the down time."

I'd also like to throw in a short hug. I guess I just want to see what his response would be (awkwardness or returned embrace).

Anyone have any thoughts on that?

have no expectations but you can GIVE him a short hug without it lasting so long that it reveals itself as a "test"

or he'll notice and then interpret it as an expectant action instead of a gift of a hug.

Make sense?
