I am glad he is taking the lead too. It is actually a 180 for me to step back and let him. It will ultimately be best for the boys and I can see that.
In the past week he has really done a great job, getting involved more, having them come to him first on some things, and even getting up at 2am when S17 was vomiting last night. Told me to stay put unless they need me, and I did just that. Had to sit on my hands a bit but I did it haha
Another 180 is to thank him, and tell him that he is doing a great job with them. I apologized for not saying it earlier, and he said "you did" but I think he was just saying that.
Funny you mentioned that Brklyn, I am actually planning to take the boys. When they found out that I was going they were so proud of me, and slightly surprised. I realized it may be a good thing to do with them as well. Make it a challenge. They have such busy schedules that I will have to work it in.
Too funny Weniki, at least it is common and not just my situation. I'll have to check out that book sometime. I am ordering a book and CD by Marianne Williamson and continuing to work on me. Looking forward to it!
Had a doctor appt this morning and he was happy to see my weight loss especially over the holiday. Seemed happy with the mild AD's I am taking and just checking to see how things are overall. He asked if H would come in to see him, and I said "i doubt it but thank you" I told him that H has asked for marriage counseling and he said "it is a good start, maybe then they can discuss IC with him as well"
Some very good news! My S15 made the high school basketball team. He was already doing a travel and rec league but the HS team is a huge accomplishment. He just found out yesterday that he is starting. I am so very proud and can't wait to go to the first game next week. I am so thankful to have a flexible work schedule to be able to do this.
Through all of this I want the boys to be ok, well I want all of us to be ok but you know what I mean.
